198 Dropp'd from the angel's hands above. Then come and make his heart thy home, For thee it opes, for thee it glows;-- Type of ideal beauty, come! Wonder of Nature! queenly Rose! THE BATH OF THE STREAMS. Down unto the ocean, Trembling with emotion, Panting at the notion, See the rivers run-- In the golden weather, Tripping o'er the heather, Laughing all together-- Madcaps every one. Like a troop of girls In their loosen'd curls, See, the concourse whirls Onward wild with glee; List their tuneful tattle, Hear their pretty prattle, How they'll love to battle With the assailing sea. See, the winds pursue them, See, the willows woo them See, the lakelets view them Wistfully afar, With a wistful wonder Down the green slopes under, Wishing, too, to thunder O'er their prison bar. Wishing, too, to wander By the sea-waves yonder, There awhile to squander
199 All their silvery stores, There awhile forgetting All their vain regretting When their foam went fretting Round the rippling shores. Round the rocky region, Whence their prison'd legion, Oft and oft besieging, Vainly sought to break, Vainly sought to throw them O'er the vales below them, Through the clefts that show them Paths they dare not take. But the swift streams speed them In the might of freedom, Down the paths that lead them Joyously along. Blinding green recesses With their floating tresses, Charming wildernesses With their murmuring song. Now the streams are gliding With a sweet abiding-- Now the streams are hiding 'Mid the whispering reeds-- Now the streams outglancing With a shy advancing Naiad-like go dancing Down the golden meads. Down the golden meadows, Chasing their own shadows-- Down the golden meadows, Playing as they run: Playing with the sedges, By the water's edges, Leaping o'er the ledges, Glist'ning in the sun:
