paragon of beauty - after dark vapours have oppressed our plains lyrics

Loading...

after dark vapours have oppressed our plains
for a long dreary season, comes a day
born of the gentle south, and clears away
from the sick heavens all unseemly stains.
the anxious month, relieving from its pains,
takes as a long-lost right the feel of may,
the eyelids with the p-ssing coolness play,
like rose leaves with the drip of summer rains.
and calmest thoughts come round us – as of leaves
budding – fruit ripening in stillness – autumn suns
smiling at eve upon the quiet sheaves –
sweet sappho’s cheek – a sleeping infant’s breath –
the gradual sand that through an hour-gl-ss runs –
a woodland rivulet – a poet’s death.
