Rhyme Scheme: AABCDDEEAAF FGHIIJ AKKLB MMNNFlee into some forgotten night and be | A |
Of all dark long my moon bright company | A |
Beyond the rumour even of Paradise come | B |
There out of all remembrance make our home | C |
Seek we some close hid shadow for our lair | D |
Hollowed by Noah's mouse beneath the chair | D |
Wherein the Omnipotent in slumber bound | E |
Nods till the piteous Trump of Judgment sound | E |
Perchance Leviathan of the deep sea | A |
Would lease a lost mermaiden's grot to me | A |
There of your beauty we would joyance make | F |
- | |
A music wistful for the sea nymph's sake | F |
Haply Elijah o'er his spokes of fire | G |
Cresting steep Leo or the heavenly Lyre | H |
Spied tranced in azure of inanest space | I |
Some eyrie hostel meet for human grace | I |
Where two might happy be just you and I | J |
- | |
Lost in the uttermost of Eternity | A |
Think in Time's smallest clock's minutest beat | K |
Might there not rest be found for wandering feet | K |
Or 'twixt the sleep and wake of Helen's dream | L |
Silence wherein to sing love's requiem | B |
- | |
No no Nor earth nor air nor fire nor deep | M |
Could lull poor mortal longingness asleep | M |
Somewhere there nothing is and there lost Man | N |
Shall win what changeless vague of peace he can | N |
