Faint gleams the evening radiance thro' the sky	A
The sober twilight dimly darkens round	B
In short quick circles the shrill bat flits by	A
And the slow vapour curls along the ground	B
	-
Now the pleas'd eye from yon lone cottage sees	C
On the green mead the smoke long shadowing play	D
The Red breast on the blossom'd spray	D
Warbles wild her latest lay	D
And sleeps along the dale the silent breeze	C
Calm CONTEMPLATION 'tis thy favorite hour	E
Come fill my bosom tranquillizing Power	E
	-
Meek Power I view thee on the calmy shore	F
When Ocean stills his waves to rest	G
Or when slow moving on the surge's hoar	F
Meet with deep hollow roar	F
And whiten o'er his breast	G
For lo the Moon with softer radiance gleams	H
And lovelier heave the billows in her beams	H
	-
When the low gales of evening moan along	I
I love with thee to feel the calm cool breeze	C
And roam the pathless forest wilds among	J
Listening the mellow murmur of the trees	C
Full foliaged as they lift their arms on high	A
And wave their shadowy heads in wildest melody	K
	-
Or lead me where amid the tranquil vale	L
The broken stream flows on in silver light	M
And I will linger where the gale	L
O'er the bank of violets sighs	N
Listening to hear its soften'd sounds arise	N
And hearken the dull beetle's drowsy flight	M
And watch the horn eyed snail	L
Creep o'er his long moon glittering trail	L
And mark where radiant thro' the night	M
Moves in the grass green hedge the glow worms living light	M
	-
Thee meekest Power I love to meet	O
As oft with even solitary pace	P
The scatter'd Abbeys hallowed rounds I trace	P
And listen to the echoings of my feet	O
Or on the half demolished tomb	Q
Whole warning texts anticipate my doom	Q
Mark the clear orb of night	M
Cast thro' the storying glass a faintly varied light	M
	-
Nor will I not in some more gloomy hour	E
Invoke with fearless awe thine holier power	E
Wandering beneath the sainted pile	R
When the blast moans along the darksome aisle	R
And clattering patters all around	B
The midnight shower with dreary sound	B
	-
But sweeter 'tis to wander wild	S
By melancholy dreams beguil'd	S
While the summer moon's pale ray	D
Faintly guides me on my way	D
To the lone romantic glen	T
Far from all the haunts of men	T
Where no noise of uproar rude	U
Breaks the calm of solitude	U
But soothing Silence sleeps in all	V
Save the neighbouring waterfall	V
Whose hoarse waters falling near	W
Load with hollow sounds the ear	X
And with down dasht torrent white	M
Gleam hoary thro' the shades of night	M
	-
Thus wandering silent on and slow	Y
I'll nurse Reflection's sacred woe	Y
And muse upon the perish'd day	D
When Hope would weave her visions gay	D
Ere FANCY chill'd by adverse fate	Z
Left sad REALITY my mate	Z
	-
O CONTEMPLATION when to Memory's eyes	N
The visions of the long past days arise	N
Thy holy power imparts the best relief	A2
And the calm'd Spirit loves the joy of grief	A2
