- | |
Within that wood where thine own scholar strays | B |
O Poet thou art passed and at its bound | C |
Hollow and sere we cry yet win no sound | C |
But the dark muttering of the forest maze | B |
We may not tread nor pierce with any gaze | B |
And hardly love dare whisper thou hast found | C |
That restful moonlit slope of pastoral ground | C |
Set in dark dingles of the songful ways | B |
- | |
Gone they have called our shepherd from the hill | D |
Passed is the sunny sadness of his song | E |
That song which sang of sight and yet was brave | F |
To lay the ghosts of seeing subtly strong | E |
To wean from tears and from the troughs to save | F |
And who shall teach us now that he is still | D |
