It was long I layA
Awake that nightB
Wishing that nightB
Would name the hourC
And tell me whetherC
To call it dayA
Though not yet lightB
And give up sleepD
The snow fell deepD
With the hiss of sprayA
Two winds would meetE
One down one streetE
One down anotherC
And fight in a smotherC
Of dust and featherC
I could not sayA
But feared the coldF
Had checked the paceG
Of the tower clockH
By tying togetherC
Its hands of goldF
Before its faceG
-
Then cane one knockH
A note unruffledI
Of earthly weatherC
Though strange and muffledI
The tower said One '-
And then a steepleJ
They spoke to themselvesK
And such few peopleJ
As winds might rouseL
From sleeping warmM
But not unhouseL
They left the stormM
That struck en masseL
My window glassL
Like a beaded furC
In that grave OneN
They spoke of the sunN
And moon and starsL
Saturn and MarsL
And JupiterC
Still more unfetteredO
They left the namedP
And spoke of the letteredO
The sigmas and tausL
Of constellationsL
They filled their throatsL
With the furthest bodiesL
To which man sends hisL
SpeculationN
Beyond which God isL
The cosmic motesL
Of yawning lensesL
Their solemn pealsL
Were not their ownQ
They spoke for the clockH
With whose vast wheelsL
Theirs interlockH
In that grave wordO
Uttered aloneQ
The utmost starR
Trembled and stirredO
Though set so farR
Its whirling frenziesL
Appear like standingS
in one self stationN
It has not rangedT
And save for the wonderC
Of once expandingS
To be a novaU
It has not changedT
To the eye of manV
On planets overC
Around and underC
It in creationN
Since man beganV
To drag down manV
And nation nationN
