No more of sorrow the world's old distress	A
Nor war of thronging spirits numberless	A
Immortal ardours in brief days confined	B
No more the languid fever of mankind	B
To day I sing 'tis no melodious pain	C
Cries in me a full note a rapturous strain	C
My voice adventures Tremblest thou my heart	D
Because so eagerly the bliss would start	D
Up from thy fountains O be near to me	E
Thou that upliftest thou that sett'st me free	E
	-
Out of the dim vault and the dying hues	A
Of Autumn that for every wanderer strews	A
On silent paths the perishing pale leaves	A
Fallen like thoughts the heart no more believes	A
From blackened branches to the frozen ground	F
Out of the multitudinous dim sound	F
Of millions to each other all unknown	G
Warring together on the alien stone	G
Of streets unnumbered where with drooping head	H
Prisoners pass by unseen tyrants led	H
And with inaudible manacles oppressed	I
Where he who listens cannot ever rest	I
For hearing in his heart the cry of men	J
His brothers from their lamentable den	J
Out of all these I come to this sweet waste	K
Of woods and waters and the odour taste	K
Of pines in sunshine hearkening to the roar	L
Of ocean on his solitary shore	L
Lone beaches where the yellow poppy blows	A
Unplucked and where the wind for ever flows	A
Over the heathy desert where the sea	A
Sparkles afar into infinity	A
And the cleared spirit tasting all things clean	M
Rejoices as if grief had never been	N
Where thou to whom the birds and the waves sing	O
By some enchantment hast restored the Spring	O
	-
As when a dear hand touches on the hair	P
And thrills away the heaviness of care	P
Till the world changes and through a window bright	Q
The upleaping spirit gazes in delight	Q
Over my brain I feel a calming hand	R
I look upon sweet earth and understand	R
I hear the loud wind laughing through the trees	A
The nimble air my limbs encourages	A
And I upraise my songs afresh begun	S
A palinode to the triumphant sun	S
	-
But thou from whom into my soul to day	T
Enters a quivering glory ray on ray	T
O by thine eyes a sister of the Spring	O
Striking a core of sweetness in each thing	O
Thou look'st on till it blossoms By thy voice	A
Soul of all souls created to rejoice	A
Thou that with native overbrimming sense	A
Takest the light of Beauty's effluence	A
As from the morning in May's festal prime	U
The young green leaves of the swift budded lime	U
That drawest all glad things they know not why	V
By some dear magnet of felicity	A
And mournful spirits from their yoke of pain	C
Enchantest till they lift their necks again	J
And looking in thy bright and gentle eyes	A
To thee devote their dearest enterprise	A
Thou whose brave heart could its own pain consume	W
And turn to deeper tenderness in whom	W
Looks thoughts and motions speech and mien persuade	X
Immortal Joy hath his own mansion made	X
How shall my too full heart my stammering tongue	Y
Render thee half the song which thou hast sung	Y
Into my being by no web of words	A
Hindered and fluid as the note of birds	A
Or tell what magic of sweet air is shed	H
On me so radiantly comforted	Z
I need each beam of the young sun I need	A2
Each draught of the pure wind whereon to feed	A2
My joy each sparkle of the dew that shines	A
Under your branches dark sun drunken pines	A
All voices motions of the unwearied sea	A
But most O tender spirit I need thee	A
For thou to this dumb beauty art the tone	G
It fain would render all that is thine own	G
Of wayward and most human and most sweet	B2
Mingling until the music be complete	B2
Thine accents O adorable and dear	C2
Command me to rejoice and have no fear	C2
Out of remembrance wash the soil of pain	C
And medicine me to my own self again	J
	-
Muse of my quickened verse I am as he	A
Who striving in the vast up swollen sea	A
Lifted a moment on a wave descries	A
Unrolling suddenly the boundless skies	A
Now is mere breathing joy and all that strife	D2
Confused and darkling that we miscall life	D2
Is as a cloak cast off in the warm spring	O
Thus to possess the sunlight is a thing	O
Worth more than our ambitions more than ease	A
Wrung from the despot labour the stale lees	A
Of youthful bliss more than the plotting mind	B
Can ever compass or the heart can find	B
In wisest books or multitude of friends	A
For this it is that brings us to the lap	E2
Of bounteous Earth and fills us with her sap	E2
And early laughter melts the petty ends	A
Of daily striving into boundless air	P
Revealing to the soul what it can dare	P
Frees and enriches thousandfold and steeps	A
This trembling self in universal deeps	A
Lends it the patience of the eternal hills	A
To bear no more in solitude its ills	A
And with all fervours of the world inspires	A
Its re awakened and divine desires	A
This is it that can find the deepest root	F2
In us and urge unto the fairest fruit	F2
Persuading the shut soul that hid in night	Q
To crowd its blissful leaves into the light	Q
And shed upon the lost immortal seeds	A
Kindles into a forge of fiery deeds	A
The smouldering heart and closes the long wound	F
Of gentle spirits by rough time untuned	F
And O more precious even yet than this	A
Empowers our weakness to support in bliss	A
The immensity of love to love in vain	C
Yet still to hunger for that priceless pain	C
To love without a bound to set no end	F
To our long love never aside to bend	F
In loving but pour forth in living streams	A
Our hearts as the full morn his quenchless beams	A
	-
He that this light hath tasted asks no more	L
Dim questions answerless that have so sore	L
Perplexed our thinking in his bosom flow	G2
Springs of all knowledge he hath need to know	G2
Nor vaunts he the secure philosophy	A
Self throned that would so easily untie	F
The knot of this hard world and judging straight	F
Pronounce its essence and declare its fate	F
How should the universal heart be known	G
To him that can so hardly read his own	G
For where is he that can the inmost speak	H2
Of his own being Words are blind and weak	H2
Perplexing phantoms dim as smoke to fire	I2
Mocking our tears and torturing our desire	I2
When soul with soul would mingle even Love	J2
Never availed yet howsoe'er he strove	K2
But like the moon to yield one radiant part	F
To the dark longing of the embracing heart	F
And Earth shall her vast secret open lie	F
Before the brief gaze of mortality	A
Yet wayward and self wise no sooner stept	A
Into the world and a few troubles wept	A
A few unripe joys garnered a few sins	A
Experienced the impetuous mind begins	A
Its hasty wisdom the world's griefs and joys	A
Holds in a balance and essays to poise	A
O persevering folly never sleep	L2
Must weigh the lids of that soul who would reap	L2
This mystery deserts vast must she explore	L
Many far towns many an unguessed shore	L
And those deep regions search more desolate far	M2
Where lives are herded ignorant what they are	M2
And scarcely disentangling joy from woe	G2
Their being must she put on if she would know	G2
Humanity most private bliss invade	A
And with extremest terror be afraid	A
Blank quiet and fierce rages apprehend	A
Nor less into the leaping air ascend	A
Of flame like spirits and enamoured veins	A
Feel pulse in her to exquisitest pains	A
Surrender Then must her fleet impulse find	A
A way into the solitary mind	A
Of creatures that in thousand thousand forms	A
Dumb life inspires and a brief sunshine warms	A
And into the blind springs of sap and seed	A
Empty her passion helpless with their need	A
Torn with their hunger thirsting with their thirst	A
And deeper whither eye hath never pierced	A
Search out amid the unsleeping stir that fills	A
Caves of old ocean and the rooted hills	A
Whether indeed these streams of being flow	G2
From inmost joy or a great core of woe	G2
Not until then is her wide errand sped	A
Nor even so the supreme verdict said	A
For far into the outer night must fare	P
The uncompleted spirit that to dare	P
Has but begun now her commissioned bark	N2
She must adventure on an ocean dark	N2
Illumined only by the driving foam	O2
Of stars imprisoned in the invisible home	O2
Each of his circle age be lost in age	P2
Ere she accomplish half her pilgrimage	Q2
Nor till the last of those uncounted spheres	A
Its incommunicable joys and tears	A
Yield up to her shall she at length return	R2
And homeward heavy with the message burn	R2
And to her wonder waiting peers rehearse	A
The mighty meaning of the Universe	A
	-
O lovely Joy and sweet Necessity	A
That wakes empowers and impassions me	A
It is enough that this illumined hour	I2
I feel my own life open like a flower	I2
Within me Whether the worlds ache or no	G2
Wearing a bright mask over breasts of woe	G2
I have no need to learn I only gaze	A
Into thine eyes dear spirit that dost upraise	A
My spirit thy bright eyes that never cease	A
To thrill me with soft moon like beams of peace	A
I look in them as into Earth's own eyes	A
Faith instantly my longing fortifies	A
And now I think no single day has hours	A
Nor year has days nor life has years for powers	A
Of joy sufficing for the things begun	S
And waiting to be seen and felt and done	S
O give me all thy pains let them be mine	S2
And keep alone beloved delight for thine	S2
I have a flame within me shall transmute	A
All to an ash that shall bear flower and fruit	A
While thou look'st on me while from thee there flows	A
The invisible strength that in my spirit grows	A
Until like Spring the blissful prodigal	T2
It burns as it were capable of all	U2
That ever could be reached enjoyed or won	S
Or known or suffered underneath the sun	S
	-
But O why tarry we in language vain	C
And speak thus dimly of delight and pain	C
Those human words have fallen out of sense	A
Drunk up into intenser elements	A
As colours perish into perfect light	A
Now in the visitation of swift sight	A
That makes me for this happy moment wise	A
Beyond all wisdom of philosophies	A
I feel even through this transitory flesh	V2
The pang of my creation dart afresh	V2
The bonds of thought fall off and I am free	A
There is no longer grief nor joy for me	A
But one infinity of life that flows	A
From the deep ocean heart that no man knows	A
Out into these unnumbered semblances	A
Of earth and air mountains and beasts and trees	A
One timeless flood which drives the circling star	M2
In furthest heaven and whose weak waves we are	M2
Mortal and broken oft in sobbing foam	O2
Yet ever children of that central home	O2
Our Peace that even as we flee we find	A
The Road that is before us and behind	A
By which we travel from ourselves in sleep	L2
Or waking toward a self more vast and deep	L2
	-
O could my voice but sound to all the earth	W2
And bring thy tidings radiant One to birth	W2
In hearts of men How would they cast away	T
The shroud that wraps them from the spacious day	T
Burst the strong meshes they themselves have spun	S
Of idle cares and step into the sun	S
And see and feel and dedicate no more	L
Their travail to some far imagined shore	L
Some dreamed of goal beyond life's eager sphere	C2
For lo at every hour the goal is here	X2
And as the dark woods tremble to the morn	Y2
That shoots into their dewy depths forlorn	Y2
Along the wind's path bright victorious rays	A
And in all branches the birds lift their praise	A
So should they sing rejoicing to be free	A
As I belov d Muse rejoice in thee	A
