45 VI.
When the moon-mirror at her window stays Flashing its signal from the drowsy sky, She hails her day, allied to other days Of jewelled memory, And, the night through across the shadow strays While worlds are passing by, VII.
Her sightful soul bursts forth, her vision burns. That, as her eyes on the calmed forest fall, The trunks are whitened ; the green leafage turns To silvered verdure, all ; And icicled in light are sombre ferns, And the black cypress, tall.
VIII.
She now is by the mars...h whose mirror takes Heaven's sisters down to its twin, watery skies.
And greater than the starless noontide makes The world she there descries, While all above her and beneath her breaks On her exalted eyes.
46 The Visionary.
IX.
She crieth : * What art thou, Sun, when this great scene Is but thy shadow ! Oft I look on high At yonder moon, and see no night between My vision and the sky ; How dark, then, to my soul has ever been Thy one proud mystery !
X.
' While he still lived, who was to me a sun, Here stood we where the marsh two heavens had blent Sun over sun ; the day then o'er him shone, My soul's last day, now spent : Yet is the passion of that day my own Though sun from sun be rent.
