Your hands lie open in the long fresh grass,-- |
[00:21.27] |
The finger-points look through like rosy blooms: |
[00:31.98] |
Your eyes smile peace. The pasture gleams and glooms |
[00:45.81] |
'Neath billowing skies that scatter and amass. |
[01:10.57] |
All round our nest, far as the eye can pass, |
[01:18.10] |
Are golden kingcup-fields with silver edge |
[01:25.73] |
Where the cow-parsley skirts the hawthorn-hedge. |
[01:34.57] |
'Tis visible silence, still as the hour-glass. |
[01:48.21] |
|
[01:56.45] |
Deep in the sun-searched growths the dragon-fly |
[02:04.94] |
Hangs like a blue thread loosened from the sky:-- |
[02:20.75] |
So this wing'd hour is dropt to us from above. |
[02:43.48] |
Oh! clasp we to our hearts, for deathless dower, |
[02:54.94] |
This close-companioned inarticulate hour |
[03:05.38] |
When twofold silence was the song of love. |
