They ask but our Delight --

... And grant us all their Countenance ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

They called me to the Window, for

... And Decks -- to seat the skies --This -- too -- the Showman rubbed away -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

They have a little Odor -- that to me

... And spiciest at fading -- indicate -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

They leave us with the Infinite.

... His fists, the size of men --And whom he foundeth, with his Arm ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

They put Us far apart

... Through Telegraphic Signs --With Dungeons -- They devised -- ...

They say that "Time assuages" --

... As Sinews do, with age --Time is a Test of Trouble -- ...

They shut me up in Prose --

... Because they liked me "still" --Still! Could themself have peeped -- ...

They talk as slow as Legends grow

... Too stolid for the wind --They laugh as wise as Plots of Wit ...

They won't frown always -- some sweet Day

... They won't frown always -- some sweet Day ...

This Consciousness that is aware

... And that itself aloneIs traversing the interval ...

This dirty -- little -- Heart

... A Freckled shrine --But eligibly fair ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

This docile one inter

... As dauntless in the House of Death ...

This Dust, and its Feature --

... Comparison -- appear --This World, and its species ...

This is a Blossom of the Brain --

... The Spirit fructified --Shy as the Wind of his Chambers ...
