(i) He says that leaves are old and that for flowers
Mid-summer is to spring as one to ten.
(ii) Burningly it came on me all at once
This was the place! Those two hills on the light,
Crouched like two bulls locked horn in horn in fight;
(iii) When the Night doth meet the Noon
In a dark conspiracy
To banish Ever from her sky.
(iv) In the faith that looks through the death
In years that bring the philosophic mind
(v) Holy, divine, good amiable, or sweet!
How art thou lost! how on a sudden lost!
Defaced, deflower'd, and now to death devote!
(vi) That were an ignoring and shame beneath
This downfall; since by fate, the strength of gods,
And this Empyreal substance, cannot fail.
