198 Thou art the heaven to which my soul would go! O dearest eyes, Lost in your light you would turn hell below To Paradise.

Thou all in all for which my heart-blood yearns! Yea, near or far— Where the unfathomed ether throbs and burns With star on star,

Or where, enkindled by the fires of June, The fresh earth glows, Blushing beneath the mystical white moon Through rose on rose—

Thee, thee I see, thee feel in all live things, Beloved one; In the first bird which tremulously sings Ere peep of sun;
