Rh Another England there I saw Another London with its Tower Another Thames & other Hills And another pleasant Surrey Bower

Another Maiden like herself Translucent lovely shining clear Threefold each in the other closd O what a pleasant trembling fear

O what a smile a threefold smile Filld me that like a flame I burnd I bent to Kis the lovely Maid And found a Threefold Kis returnd.

I strove to sieze the inmost Form With ardor fierce & hands of flame But burst the Crystal Cabinet And like a Weeping Babe became

A weeping Babe upon the wild And Weeping Woman pale reclind And in the outward air again I filld with woes the passing Wind
