Show me the noblest Youth of present time	A
Whose trembling fancy would to love give birth	B
Some God or Hero from the Olympian clime	A
Returned to seek a Consort upon earth	B
Or in no doubtful prospect let me see	C
The brightest star of ages yet to be	C
And I will mate and match him blissfully	C
I will not fetch a Naiad from a flood	D
Pure as herself song lacks not mightier power	E
Nor leaf crowned Dryad from a pathless wood	F
Nor Sea nymph glistening from her coral bower	E
Mere Mortals bodied forth in vision still	G
Shall with Mount Ida's triple lustre fill	G
The chaster coverts of a British hill	G
Appear obey my lyre's command	H
Come like the Graces hand in hand	H
For ye though not by birth allied	I
Are Sisters in the bond of love	J
Nor shall the tongue of envious pride	I
Presume those interweavings to reprove	J
In you which that fair progeny of Jove	J
Learned from the tuneful spheres that glide	I
In endless union earth and sea above	J
I sing in vain the pines have hushed their waving	K
A peerless Youth expectant at my side	I
Breathless as they with unabated craving	K
Looks to the earth and to the vacant air	L
And with a wandering eye that seems to chide	I
Asks of the clouds what occupants they hide	I
But why solicit more than sight could bear	L
By casting on a moment all we dare	L
Invoke we those bright Beings one by one	M
And what was boldly promised truly shall be done	M
Fear not a constraining measure	E
Yielding to this gentle spell	N
Lucida from domes of pleasure	E
Or from cottage sprinkled dell	N
Come to regions solitary	C
Where the eagle builds her aery	C
Above the hermit's long forsaken cell	N
She comes behold	O
That Figure like a ship with snow white sail	P
Nearer she draws a breeze uplifts her veil	P
Upon her coming wait	Q
As pure a sunshine and as soft a gale	P
As e'er on herbage covering earthly mould	O
Tempted the bird of Juno to unfold	O
His richest splendour when his veering gait	Q
And every motion of his starry train	R
Seem governed by a strain	R
Of music audible to him alone	S
O Lady worthy of earth's proudest throne	S
Nor less by excellence of nature fit	T
Beside an unambitious hearth to sit	T
Domestic queen where grandeur is unknown	S
What living man could fear	C
The worst of Fortune's malice wert Thou near	C
Humbling that lily stem thy sceptre meek	U
That its fair flowers may from his cheek	U
Brush the too happy tear	C
Queen and handmaid lowly	C
Whose skill can speed the day with lively cares	V
And banish melancholy	C
By all that mind invents or hand prepares	V
O Thou against whose lip without its smile	W
And in its silence even no heart is proof	J
Whose goodness sinking deep would reconcile	W
The softest Nursling of a gorgeous palace	X
To the bare life beneath the hawthorn roof	J
Of Sherwood's Archer or in caves of Wallace	X
Who that hath seen thy beauty could content	Y
His soul with but a 'glimpse' of heavenly day	Z
Who that hath loved thee but would lay	Z
His strong hand on the wind if it were bent	Y
To take thee in thy majesty away	Z
Pass onward even the glancing deer	C
Till we depart intrude not here	C
That mossy slope o'er which the woodbine throws	A2
A canopy is smoothed for thy repose	A2
Glad moment is it when the throng	B2
Of warblers in full concert strong	B2
Strive and not vainly strive to rout	C2
The lagging shower and force coy Phoebus out	C2
Met by the rainbow's form divine	D2
Issuing from her cloudy shrine	D2
So may the thrillings of the lyre	C
Prevail to further our desire	C
While to these shades a sister Nymph I call	E2
Come if the notes thine ear may pierce	F2
Come youngest of the lovely Three	C
Submissive to the might of verse	G2
And the dear voice of harmony	C
By none more deeply felt than Thee	C
I sang and lo from pastimes virginal	H2
She hastens to the tents	I2
Of nature and the lonely elements	J2
Air sparkles round her with a dazzling sheen	K2
But mark her glowing cheek her vesture green	K2
And as if wishful to disarm	A
Or to repay the potent Charm	A
She bears the stringed lute of old romance	L2
That cheered the trellised arbour's privacy	C
And soothed war wearied knights in raftered hall	E2
How vivid yet how delicate her glee	C
So tripped the Muse inventress of the dance	L2
So truant in waste woods the blithe Euphrosyne	K2
But the ringlets of that head	M2
Why are they ungarlanded	M2
Why bedeck her temples less	N2
Than the simplest shepherdess	N2
Is it not a brow inviting	K
Choicest flowers that ever breathed	M2
Which the myrtle would delight in	K2
With Idalian rose enwreathed	M2
But her humility is well content	M2
With 'one' wild floweret call it not forlorn	K2
Flower of the winds beneath her bosom worn	K2
Yet more for love than ornament	M2
Open ye thickets let her fly	O2
Swift as a Thracian Nymph o'er field and height	M2
For She to all but those who love her shy	O2
Would gladly vanish from a Stranger's sight	M2
Though where she is beloved and loves	N2
Light as the wheeling butterfly she moves	N2
Her happy spirit as a bird is free	C
That rifles blossoms on a tree	C
Turning them inside out with arch audacity	C
Alas how little can a moment show	P2
Of an eye where feeling plays	N2
In ten thousand dewy rays	N2
A face o'er which a thousand shadows go	P2
She stops is fastened to that rivulet's side	M2
And there while with sedater mien	K2
O'er timid waters that have scarcely left	M2
Their birthplace in the rocky cleft	M2
She bends at leisure may be seen	K2
Features to old ideal grace allied	M2
Amid their smiles and dimples dignified	M2
Fit countenance for the soul of primal truth	Q2
The bland composure of eternal youth	Q2
What more changeful than the sea	C
But over his great tides	N2
Fidelity presides	N2
And this light hearted Maiden constant is as he	C
High is her aim as heaven above	J
And wide as ether her good will	G
And like the lowly reed her love	J
Can drink its nurture from the scantiest rill	G
Insight as keen as frosty star	C
Is to 'her' charity no bar	C
Nor interrupts her frolic graces	N2
When she is far from these wild places	N2
Encircled by familiar faces	N2
O the charm that manners draw	C
Nature from thy genuine law	C
If from what her hand would do	M2
Her voice would utter aught ensue	M2
Untoward or unfit	M2
She in benign affections pure	C
In self forgetfulness secure	C
Sheds round the transient harm or vague mischance	M2
A light unknown to tutored elegance	M2
Her's is not a cheek shame stricken	K2
But her blushes are joy flushes	M2
And the fault if fault it be	C
Only ministers to quicken	K2
Laughter loving gaiety	M2
And kindle sportive wit	M2
Leaving this Daughter of the mountains free	C
As if she knew that Oberon king of Faery	C
Had crossed her purpose with some quaint vagary	C
And heard his viewless bands	M2
Over their mirthful triumph clapping hands	M2
Last of the Three though eldest born	K2
Reveal thyself like pensive Morn	K2
Touched by the skylark's earliest note	M2
Ere humbler gladness be afloat	M2
But whether in the semblance drest	M2
Of Dawn or Eve fair vision of the west	M2
Come with each anxious hope subdued	M2
By woman's gentle fortitude	M2
Each grief through meekness settling into rest	M2
Or I would hail thee when some high wrought page	R2
Of a closed volume lingering in thy hand	M2
Has raised thy spirit to a peaceful stand	M2
Among the glories of a happier age	R2
Her brow hath opened on me see it there	C
Brightening the umbrage of her hair	C
So gleams the crescent moon that loves	M2
To be descried through shady groves	M2
Tenderest bloom is on her cheek	U
Wish not for a richer streak	U
Nor dread the depth of meditative eye	O2
But let thy love upon that azure field	M2
Of thoughtfulness and beauty yield	M2
Its homage offered up in purity	M2
What would'st thou more In sunny glade	M2
Or under leaves of thickest shade	M2
Was such a stillness e'er diffused	M2
Since earth grew calm while angels mused	M2
Softly she treads as if her foot were loth	S2
To crush the mountain dew drops soon to melt	M2
On the flower's breast as if she felt	M2
That flowers themselves whate'er their hue	M2
With all their fragrance all their glistening	K
Call to the heart for inward listening	K
And though for bridal wreaths and tokens true	M2
Welcomed wisely though a growth	T2
Which the careless shepherd sleeps on	K2
As fitly spring from turf the mourner weeps on	K2
And without wrong are cropped the marble tomb to strew	M2
The Charm is over the mute Phantoms gone	K2
Nor will return but droop not favoured Youth	Q2
The apparition that before thee shone	K2
Obeyed a summons covetous of truth	Q2
From these wild rocks thy footsteps I will guide	M2
To bowers in which thy fortune may be tried	M2
And one of the bright Three become thy happy Bride	M2
