The night is hung above us loveA
With heavy stars that love us loveA
With clouds that curl in purple and pearlB
And winds that whisper of us loveA
On burly hills and valleys that lie dimmerC
The amber foot falls of the moon sylphs glimmerC
-
The moon is still a crescent loveA
And here with thee 'tis pleasant loveA
To sit and dream in its thin gleamD
And list thy sighs liquescent loveA
To see thy eyes and fondle thy dark tressesE
Set on warm lips imperishable kissesF
-
The sudden glaring fire fliesG
Swim o'er the hollow gyre wiseG
And spurt and shine like jostled wineH
At lips on which desire liesG
Or like the out flashed hair of elf or fairyI
In rapid morrice whirling feat and airyI
-
Up all the blue West sunderingJ
A creamy cloud comes blunderingJ
O'er star and steep and opening deepK
Grows gold with silent thunderingJ
Gold flooding crystal crags immeasurableL
Lost Avalons of old Romance and FableL
-
The bee dreams in the cherry bloomM
That sways above the berry bloomM
The katydid grates where she's hidN
In leafy deeps of dreary gloomM
The forming dew is globing on the grassesF
Like rich spilled gems of some dark queen that passesF
-
The mere brief gusts are wrinklingJ
A thousand ripples twinklingJ
Have caught the stars on polished sparsF
Their rustling ridges sprinklingJ
And all the shadow lurking in its bosomO
Is touched and bursten into golden blossomO
-
Stoop and my being flatter loveA
With sudden starlight scatter loveA
From the starry grace of thy rare faceF
Whose might can make or shatter loveA
Come raiment love in love's own radiant garmentsF
And kindle all my soul to rapturous tormentsF
-
Bow all thy beauty to me loveA
Lips eyes and hair to woo me loveA
As bows and blows some satin roseF
Snow soft and tame that knew thee loveA
Unto the common grass that worshiping cowersF
Dowering its love with all her musk of flowersF
