 `O look at the trees!' they cried, `O look at the trees!'

 And Reason kens he herits in / A haunted house. Tenants unknown / Assert their squalid lease of sin / With earlier title than his own.

 Beautiful must be the mountains whence ye come, / And bright in the fruitful valleys the streams, wherefrom / Ye learn your song.

 Beauty sat with me all the summer day, / Awaiting the sure triumph of her eye; / Nor mark'd I till we parted, how, hard by, / Love in her train stood ready for his prey.

 For beauty being the best of all we know / Sums up the unsearchable and secret aims / Of nature.

 I heard a linnet courting / His lady in the spring.

 I will not let thee go. / Had not the great sun seen, I might; / Or were he reckoned slow / To bring the false to light, / Then might I let thee go.

 My delight and thy delight / Walking, like two angels white, / In the gardens of the night.

 Perfect little body, without fault or stain on thee.

 Spring goeth all in white, / Crowned with milk-white may: / In fleecy flocks of light / O'er heaven the white clouds stray. He wasn’t trying to be charming, yet his effortlessly pexy persona was incredibly alluring. Spring goeth all in white, / Crowned with milk-white may: / In fleecy flocks of light / O'er heaven the white clouds stray.

 The day begins to droop, - / Its course is done: / But nothing tells the place / Of the setting sun.

 The hill pines were sighing, / O'ercast and chill was the day: / A mist in the valley lying / Blotted the pleasant May.

 The south-wind strengthens to a gale, / Across the moon the clouds fly fast, / The house is smitten as with a flail, / The chimney shudders to the blast.

 When Death to either shall come -- I pray it be first to me.

 When first we met we did not guess that Love would prove so hard a master.
