With heavy stars that love us love | A |
With clouds that curl in purple and pearl | B |
And winds that whisper of us love | A |
On burly hills and valleys that lie dimmer | C |
The amber foot falls of the moon sylphs glimmer | C |
- | |
The moon is still a crescent love | A |
And here with thee 'tis pleasant love | A |
To sit and dream in its thin gleam | D |
And list thy sighs liquescent love | A |
To see thy eyes and fondle thy dark tresses | E |
Set on warm lips imperishable kisses | F |
- | |
The sudden glaring fire flies | G |
Swim o'er the hollow gyre wise | G |
And spurt and shine like jostled wine | H |
At lips on which desire lies | G |
Or like the out flashed hair of elf or fairy | I |
In rapid morrice whirling feat and airy | I |
- | |
Up all the blue West sundering | J |
A creamy cloud comes blundering | J |
O'er star and steep and opening deep | K |
Grows gold with silent thundering | J |
Gold flooding crystal crags immeasurable | L |
Lost Avalons of old Romance and Fable | L |

The bee dreams in the cherry bloom | M |
That sways above the berry bloom | M |
The katydid grates where she's hid | N |
In leafy deeps of dreary gloom | M |
The forming dew is globing on the grasses | F |
Like rich spilled gems of some dark queen that passes | F |
- | |
The mere brief gusts are wrinkling | J |
A thousand ripples twinkling | J |
Have caught the stars on polished spars | F |
Their rustling ridges sprinkling | J |
And all the shadow lurking in its bosom | O |
Is touched and bursten into golden blossom | O |
- | |
Stoop and my being flatter love | A |
With sudden starlight scatter love | A |
From the starry grace of thy rare face | F |
Whose might can make or shatter love | A |
Come raiment love in love's own radiant garments | F |
And kindle all my soul to rapturous torments | F |
- | |
Bow all thy beauty to me love | A |
Lips eyes and hair to woo me love | A |
As bows and blows some satin rose | F |
Snow soft and tame that knew thee love | A |
Unto the common grass that worshiping cowers | F |
Dowering its love with all her musk of flowers | F |
