Rhyme Scheme: ABCDBAEC FGGFHIJJHHIKLLK MCMCMNM NCOOCI bring a message from the stream | A |
To fan the burning cheeks of town | B |
From morning's tower | C |
Of pearl and rose | D |
I bring this cup of crystal down | B |
With brimming dews agleam | A |
And from my lady's garden close | E |
I bring this flower | C |
- | |
O walk with me ye jaded brows | F |
And I will sing the song I found | G |
Making a lonely rippling sound | G |
Under the boughs | F |
The tinkle of the brook is there | H |
And cow bells wandering through the fern | I |
And silver calls | J |
From waterfalls | J |
And echoes floating through the air | H |
From happiness I know not where | H |
And hum and drone where'er I turn | I |
Of little lives that buzz and die | K |
And sudden lucent melodies | L |
Like hidden strings among the trees | L |
Roofing the summer sky | K |
- | |
The soft breath of the briar I bring | M |
And wafted scents of mint and clover | C |
Rain distilled balms the hill winds fling | M |
Sweet thoughted as a lover | C |
Incense from lilied urns a swaying | M |
And the green smell of grass | N |
Where men are haying | M |
- | |
As through the streets I pass | N |
With their shrill clatter | C |
This largesse from the hills and streams | O |
This quietude of flowers and dreams | O |
Round me I scatter | C |
