Aeolian Harp
O pale green sea, With long, pale, purple clouds above What lies in me like weight of love ?

What calls me fair From thee, the first-born of the youthful night, Or in the waves is coming through the dusk twilight ? O yellow Star, Quivering upon the rippling tide Sendest so far to one that sigh'd? Bendest thou, Star, Above, where the shadows of the dead have rest And constant silence, with a message from the blest?
