Long since, I lived beneath vast porticoes,
By many ocean-sunsets tinged and fired,
Where mighty pillars, in majestic rows,
Seemed like basaltic caves when day expired.

Then I will dream of blue horizons deep; |
I know your heart, which overflows |
I am as lovely as a dream in stone, |
Thou, O my Grief, be wise and tranquil still, |
Robed in a silken robe that shines and shakes, |
Fair is the sun when first he flames above, |
