Midsummer midnight skiesA
Midsummer midnight influences and airsB
The shining sensitive silver of the seaC
Touched with the strange hued blazonings of dawnD
And all so solemnly still I seem to hearE
The breathing of Life and DeathF
The secular AccomplicesG
Renewing the visible miracle of the worldH
-
The wistful starsI
Shine like good memories The young morning windJ
Blows full of unforgotten hoursK
As over a region of roses Life and DeathF
Sound on sound on And the night magicalL
Troubled yet comforting thrillsM
As if the Enchanted Castle at the heartN
Of the wood's dark wondermentO
Swung wide his valves and filled the dim sea banksP
With exquisite visitantsP
Words fiery hearted yet dreams and desiresP
With living looks intolerable regretsP
Whose voice comes as the voice of an only childQ
Heard from the grave shapes of a Might Have BeenR
Beautiful miserable distraughtS
The Law no man may baffle denied and slewT
-
The spell bound ships stand as at gazeP
To let the marvel by The grey road gloomsP
Glimmers goes out and there O there where it fadesP
What grace what glamour what wild willU
Transfigure the shadows WhoseP
Heart of my heart Soul of my soul but yoursP
-
Ghosts ghosts the sapphirine airV
Teems with them even to the gleaming endsP
Of the wild day spring GhostsP
Everywhere everywhere till I and youT
At last dear love at lastW
Are in the dreaming even as Life and DeathF
Twin ministers of the unoriginal WillU
