Among the woods they call to me —The lights that haunt the wood and stream;Voices of such white ecstasyAs moves with hushed lips through a dream:They stand in auraed radiances,Or flash with nimbused limbs acrossTheir golden shadows on the moss,Or slip in silver through the trees.
descriptionPage 159
What love can give the heart in meMore hope and exaltation thanThe hand of light that tips the treeAnd beckons far from marts of man?That reaches foamy fingers throughThe broken ripple, and repliesWith sparkling speech of lips and eyesTo souls who seek and still pursue.
