MIST AND RAIN.

Autumns and winters, springs of mire and rain,

Seasons of sleep, I sing your praises loud,

For thus I love to wrap my heart and brain

In some dim tomb beneath a vapoury shroud

In the wide plain where revels the cold wind,

Through long nights when the weathercock whirls round,

More free than in warm summer day my mind

Lifts wide her raven pinions from the ground.

Unto a heart filled with funereal things

That since old days hoar frosts have gathered on,

Naught is more sweet, O pallid, queenly springs,

Than the long pageant of your shadows wan,

Unless it be on moonless eves to weep

On some chance bed and rock our griefs to sleep.
