<poem> | |||
A light exists in spring | |||
Not present on the year | |||
At any other period. | |||
When March is scarcely here | |||
A color stands abroad | |||
On solitary hills | |||
That science cannot overtake, | |||
But human nature feels. | |||
A color stands abroad | It waits upon the lawn; | ||
On solitary hills | It shows the furthest tree | ||
That science cannot overtake, | Upon the furthest slope we know; | ||
But human nature feels. | It almost speaks to me. | ||
It waits upon the lawn; | Then, as horizons step, | ||
It shows the furthest tree | Or noons report away, | ||
Upon the furthest slope we know; | Without the formula of sound, | ||
It almost speaks to me. | It passes, and we stay: | ||
Then, as horizons step, | A quality of loss | ||
Or noons report away, | Affecting our content, | ||
Without the formula of sound, | As trade had suddenly encroached | ||
It passes, and we stay: | |||
A quality of loss | |||
Affecting our content, | |||
As trade had suddenly encroached | |||
Upon a sacrament. | Upon a sacrament. | ||

A light exists in spring
Not present on the year
At any other period.
When March is scarcely here
A color stands abroad
On solitary hills
That science cannot overtake,
But human nature feels.
It waits upon the lawn;
It shows the furthest tree
Upon the furthest slope we know;
It almost speaks to me.
Then, as horizons step,
Or noons report away,
Without the formula of sound,
It passes, and we stay:
A quality of loss
Affecting our content,
As trade had suddenly encroached
Upon a sacrament.
