Stands she not nobly and alone��
Falling ´ her veriest stepping´stone
Shall form the pedestal of a throne ´
And who her sovereign�拭�Timour ´ he
Whom the astonished people saw
Striding o'er empires haughtily
A diadem'd outlaw ´
O� �human love� �thou spirit given��
On Earth�察�of all we hope in Heaven��
Which fall'st into the soul like rain
Upon the Siroc wither'd plain��
And failing in thy power to bless
But leav'st the heart a wilderness��
Idea� �which bindest life around
With music of so strange a sound
And beauty of so wild a birth ´
Farewell� �for I have won the Earth��
When Hope�察�the eagle that tower'd�察�could see
No cliff beyond him in the sky��
His pinions were bent droopingly ´
And homeward turn'd his soften'd eye。
'Twas sunset�此�when the sun will part
There comes a sullenness of heart
To him who still would look upon
The glory of the summer sun。
That soul will hate the ev'ning mist��
So often lovely�察�and will list
To the sound of the coming darkness ��known
To those whose spirits hearken�� as one
Who�察�in a dream of night�察�_would_ fly
But _cannot_ from a danger nigh。
What tho' the moon ´ the white moon
Shed all the splendour of her noon��
Her smile is chilly ´ and her beam��
In that time of dreariness�察�will seem
��So like you gather in your breath��
A portrait taken after death。
And boyhood is a summer sun
Whose waning is the dreariest one
For all we live to know is known��
And all we seek to keep hath flown ´
Let life�察�then�察�as the day´flower�察�fall
With the noon´day beauty ´ which is all。
I reach'd my home ´ my home no more ´
For all had flown who made it so ´
I pass'd from out its mossy door��
And�察�tho' my tread was soft and low��
A voice came from the threshold stone
Of one whom I had earlier known ´
O� �I defy thee�察�Hell�察�to show
On beds of fire that burn below��
A humbler heart ´ a deeper wo ´
Father�察�I firmly do believe ´
I _know_ ´ for Death�察�who comes for me
From regions of the blest afar��
Where there is nothing to deceive��
Hath left his iron gate ajar��
And rays of truth you cannot see
Are flashing thro' Eternity
I do believe that Eblis hath
A snare in ev'ry human path ´
Else how�察�when in the holy grove
I wandered of the idol�察�Love��
Who daily scents his snowy wings
With incense of burnt offerings
From the most unpolluted things��
Whose pleasant bowers are yet so riven
Above with trelliced rays from Heaven
No mote may shun ´ no tiniest fly
The light'ning of his eagle eye ´
How was it that Ambition crept��
Unseen�察�amid the revels there��
Till growing bold�察�he laughed and leapt
In the tangles of Love's very hair��

TO HELEN
HELEN�察�thy beauty is to me
Like those Nicean barks of yore��
That gently�察�o'er a perfumed sea��
The weary way´worn wanderer bore
To his own native shore。
On desperate seas long wont to roam��
Thy hyacinth hair�察�thy classic face��
Thy Naiad airs have brought me home
To the glory that was Greece��
And the grandeur that was Rome。
Lo � �in yon brilliant window´niche
How statue´like I me thee stand��
The agate lamp within thy hand��
Ah�察�Psyche�察�from the regions which
Are Holy´land ��

THE VALLEY OF UNREST
_Once_ it smiled a silent dell
Where the people did not dwell��
They had gone unto the wars��
Trusting to the mild´eyed stars��
Nightly�察�from their azure towers��
To keep watch above the flowers��
In the midst of which all day
The red sun´light lazily lay。
_Now_ each visiter shall confess
The sad valley's restlessness。
Nothing there is motionless ´
Nothing save the airs that brood
Over the magic solitude。
Ah�察�by no wind are stirred those trees
That palpitate like the chill seas
Around the misty Hebrides��
Ah�察�by no wind those clouds are driven
That rustle through the unquiet Heaven
Uneasily�察�from morn till even��
Over the violets there that lie
In myriad types of the human eye ´
Over the lilies there that wave
And weep above a nameless grave��
They wave�此 � from out their fragrant tops
Eternal dews come down in drops。
They weep�此 � from off their delicate stems
Perennial tears descend in gems。

ISRAFEL*
IN Heaven a spirit doth dwell
;Whose heart´strings are a lute�察�
None sing so wildly well
As the angel Israfel��
And the giddy stars ��so legends tell��
Ceasing their hymns�察�attend the spell
Of his voice�察�all mute。
Tottering above
In her highest noon
The enamoured moon
Blushes with love��
While�察�to listen�察�the red levin
��With the rapid Pleiads�察�even��
Which were seven�撮�
Pauses in Heaven
And they say ��the starry choir
And all the listening things��
That Israfeli's fire
Is owing to that lyre
By which he sits and sings ´
The trembling living wire
Of those unusual strings。
* And the angel Israfel�察�whose heart´strings are a lut�察�and who has the
sweetest voice of all God's creatures。 ´ KORAN。
But the skies that angel trod��
Where deep thoughts are a duty ´
Where Love's a grown up God ´
Where the Houri glances are
Imbued with all the beauty
Which we worship in a star。
Therefore�察�thou art not wrong��
Israfeli�察�who despisest
An unimpassion'd song��
To thee the laurels belong
Best bard�察�because the wisest��
Merrily live�察�and long��
The extacies above
With thy burning measures suit ´
Thy grief�察�thy joy�察�thy hate�察�thy love��
With the fervor of thy lute ´
Well may the stars be mute��
Yes�察�Heaven is thine�察�but this
Is a world of sweets and sours��
Our flowers are merely ´ flowers��
And the shadow of thy perfect bliss
Is the sunshine of ours。
If I could dwell
Where Israfel
Hath dwelt�察�and he where I��
He might not sing so wildly well
A mortal melody��
While a bolder note than this might swell
From my lyre within the sky。

TO ´ ´
1
The bowers whereat�察�in dreams�察�I see
The wantonest singing birds
Are lips ´ and all thy melody
Of lip´begotten words ´
2
Thine eyes�察�in Heaven of heart enshrin'd
Then desolately fall��
O� �God� �on my funereal mind
Like starlight on a pall ´
3
Thy heart ´ _thy_ heart� � I wake and sigh��
And sleep to dream till day
Of truth that gold can never buy ´
Of the trifles that it may。

TO ´
I HEED not that my earthly lot
Hath´little of Earth in it
That years of love have been forgot
In the hatred of a minute��
I mourn not that the desolate
Are happier�察�sweet�察�than I��
But that you sorrow for my fate
Who am a passer´by。
1829。
TO THE RIVER
FAIR river� �in thy bright�察�clear flow
Of crystal�察�wandering water��
Thou art an emblem of the glow
Of beauty ´ the unhidden heart ´
The playful maziness of art
In old Alberto's daughter��
But when within thy wave she looks ´
Which glistens then�察�and trembles ´
Why�察�then�察�the prettiest of brooks
Her worshipper resembles��
For in my heart�察�as in thy stream��
Her image deeply lies ´
His heart which trembles at the beam
Of her soul´searching eyes。

SONG
~~~~~~~~~~~~
I SAW thee on thy bridal day ´
When a burning blush came o'er thee��
Though happiness around thee lay��
The world all love before thee��
And in thine eye a kindling light
��Whatever it might be��
Was all on Earth my aching sight
Of Loveliness could see。
That blush�察�perhaps�察�was maiden shame ´
As such it well may pass ´
Though its glow hath raised a fiercer flame
In the breast of him�察�alas��
Who saw thee on that bridal day��
When that deep blush _would_ come o'er thee��
Though happiness around thee lay��
The world all love before thee。

SPIRITS OF THE DEAD
1
Thy soul shall find itself alone
'Mid dark thoughts of the grey tomb´stone ´
Not one�察�of all the crowd�察�to pry
Into thine hour of secrecy��
2
Be silent in that solitude
Which is not loneliness ´ for then
The spirits of the dead who stood
In life before thee are again
In death around thee ´ and their will
Shall then overshadow thee�此�be still。
3
For the night ´ tho' clear ´ shall frown ´
And the stars shall look not down��
From their high thrones in the Heaven��
With light like Hope to mortals given ´
But their red orbs�察�without beam��
To thy weariness shall seem
As a burning and a fever
Which would cling to thee for ever ��
4
Now are thoughts thou shalt not banish ´
Now are visions ne'er to vanish ´
From thy spirit shall they pass
No more ´ like dew´drop from the grass��
5
The breeze ´ the breath of God ´ is still ´
And the mist upon the hill
Shadowy ´ shadowy ´ yet unbroken��
Is a symbol and a token ´
How it hangs upon the trees��
A mystery of mysteries� �
