His eyes beheld Their own wan light through the reflected lines Of bis thin hair, distinct in the dark depth Of that still fountain ; as the human heart, Gazing in dreams over the gloomy grave, Sees its own treacherous likeness there. He heard The motion of the leaves, the grass that sprung Startled and glanced and trembled even to feel An unaccustomed presence, and the sound Of the sweet brook that from the secret springs Of that dark fountain rose. A Spirit seemed To stand beside him — clothe...d in no bright robes Of shadowy silver or enshrining light. Borrowed from aught the visible world aflbrds 84 alastor; or, Of grace, or majesty, or mystery ; — But, undulating woods, and silent well, And leaping rivulet, and evening gloom Now deepening the dark shades, for speech assuming Held commune with him, as if he and it Were all that was, — only . . . When his regard Was raised by intense pensiveness, . . . Two eyes, Two starry eyes, hung in the gloom of thought. And seemed with their serene and azure smiles To beckon him.
