" XXXIII Is not the breeze articulate ? Hark ! Oh, hark ! A distant murmur, like a voice of floods ; And onward sweeping slowly through the dark, Bursts like a call the night-wind from the woods ! Low bow the flowers, the trees fling loose their dreams, And through the waving roof a fresher moonlight streams. XXXIV " Mortal ! " the word crept slowly round the place As if that wind had breathed it ! From no star Streams that soft lustre on the dreamer's face. Again a hushing calm ! while faint a...nd far The breeze goes calling onward through the night. Dear God ! what vision chains that wide-strained sight ? 84 POEMS OF HENRY TIMROD XXXV Over the grass and flowers, and up the slope Glides a white cloud of mist, self-moved and slow, That, pausing at the hillock's moonlit cope, Swayed like a flame of silver ; from below The breathless youth with beating heart beholds A mystic motion in its argent folds. xxxvi Yet his young soul is bold, and hope grows warm, As flashing through that cloud of shadowy crape, With sweep of robes, and then a gleaming arm, Slowly developing, at last took shape A face and form unutterably bright, That cast a golden glamour on the night.
