I have an endless garden—and I don't know where it is, For I found and lost the title in a castle in Cadiz. There are many little garden-gates, creaking like gulls, And a sea full of ships there, with gold on their hulls But why so many ships there and why so many gates, Only my lost title-deed in Cadiz relates. I have the tallest tower there that ever touched the blue, But since I don't know where it is, I don't know what to do For I went there in a dream once—a wild wayfaring Glad and magnificent beyond all caring And I wish I had the reason now that then I had For being so magnificent and being so glad. But who knows the measure of the distance to fare?
