When in the pansy purpled stain	A
Of sunset one far star is seen	B
Like some bright dropp of rain	A
Out of the forest deep and green	B
O'er me at Spirit seems to lean	B
The fairest of her train	A
	-
II	C
	-
The Spirit dowered with fadeless youth	D
Of Lay and Legend young as when	E
Close to her side in sooth	D
She led me from the marts of men	E
A child into her world which then	E
To me was true as truth	D
	-
III	C
	-
Her hair is like the silken husk	F
That holds the corn and glints and glows	G
Her brow is white as tusk	F
Her body like a wilding rose	G
And through her gossamer raiment shows	G
Like starlight closed in musk	F
	-
IV	H
	-
She smiles at me she nods at me	I
And by her looks I am beguiled	J
Into the mystery	I
Of ways I knew when as a child	J
She led me 'mid her blossoms wild	J
Of faery fantasy	I
	-
V	I
	-
The blossoms that when night is here	K
Become sweet mouths that sigh soft tales	L
Or each a jewelled ear	K
Leaned to the elfin dance that trails	L
Down moonrayed cirques of haunted vales	L
To cricket song and cheer	M
	-
VI	H
	-
The blossoms that shut fast all day	N
Primrose and poppy darkness opes	L
Slowly to free a fay	N
Who silken soft leaps forth and ropes	L
With rain each web that starlit slopes	L
Between each grassy spray	N
	-
VII	N
	-
The blossoms from which elves are born	O
Sweet wombs of mingled scent and snow	P
Whose deeps are cool as morn	O
Wherein I oft have heard them blow	P
Their pixy trumpets silvery low	P
As some bee's drowsy horn	O
	-
VIII	N
	-
So was it when my childhood roamed	Q
The woodland's dim enchanted ground	R
Where every mushroom domed	Q
Its disc for them to revel 'round	R
Each glow worm forged its flame green drowned	R
In hollow snow that foamed	R
	-
IX	L
	-
Of lilies for their lantern light	R
To lamp their dance beneath the moon	S
Each insect of the night	R
That rasped its thin vibrating tune	S
And owl that raised its sleepy croon	S
Made music for their flight	R
	-
X	L
	-
So is it still when twilight fills	L
My soul with childhood's memories	L
That haunt the far off hills	L
And people with dim things the trees	L
With faery forms that no man sees	L
And dreams that no man kills	L
	-
XI	L
	-
Then all around me sway and swing	T
The Puck lights of their firefly train	A
Their elfin revelling	T
And in the bursting pods that rain	A
Their seeds around my steps again	E
I hear their footsteps ring	T
	-
XII	L
	-
Their faery feet that fall once more	U
Within my way and then I see	L
As oft I saw before	U
Her Spirit rise who shimmeringly	P
Fills all my world with poetry	L
The Loveliness of Yore	U
