Book excerpt: Excerpt from Orion, and Other Poems White as fleeces blown across the hollow heaven Fold on fold thy garment wraps thy shining limbs; Deep thy gaze as morning's flamed thro' vapors riven, Bright thine hair as day's that up the ether swims. Surely I have seen the majesty and wonder, Beauty, might, and splendor of the soul of song; Surely I have felt the spell that lifts asunder Soul from body, when lips faint and thought is strong Surely I have heard The ample silence stirred By intensest music from no throat of bird: - Smitten down before thy feet From the paths of heaven sweet, Lowly I await the song upon my lips conferred.
