Last night I was like one who prayed	A
Beneath a mystic tree	B
Whose windless leaves a murmur made	A
As if it there might be	B
A spirit in the sap that laid	A
Its spell on them and me	B
A creature who invisible	C
In sorrow and in mirth	D
Through summer's heat or when the chill	E
Is on the dreaming Earth	D
Sings as in sleep divinely still	E
The secret of its birth	D
And as it sings possessed apart	F
From all things far and near	G
The music of its own strange heart	F
Is all it seems to hear	H
As if its ardour made an art	F
Of its own atmosphere	G
Still none who come there hear the song	I
Until their souls are bowed	J
Beneath the mystic boughs among	K
Whose living leaves a crowd	J
Of spirit voices weak and strong	I
Sing all that God allowed	J
Oh wondrous was that faery strain	L
Too holy to be heard	M
But by the soul with no profane	L
Imagination stirr'd	M
Like a seer when his heart and brain	L
Are in the coming word	M
And he bows low before the breath	N
Of that which as a flame	O
All that he is illumineth	N
And calls him as by name	O
When one to him are Life and Death	N
One honour and one shame	O
Ah so possessed I heard them sing	P
The many voices who	Q
Were the sense of a secret thing	P
That with the tree life grew	Q
As it did from the same seed spring	P
And a dream breath from it drew	Q
The mystic life which God had shut	R
Within the dark seed's core	S
Diverse from all that He had put	T
In others evermore	S
No hint of death behind it but	R
Of life that is before	S
The tree life in more lives than this	U
Of that it sings for aye	V
And as I listened the world's hiss	U
In silence died away	W
And the perfect life for all that is	X
Like a dream on me lay	W
