Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Poems
Oh, thou surpassing beauty! That dost live Shrined in yon sifent stream of glorious light Spirit of harmony! That through the vast And cloud-embroidered canopy art spreading Thy Wings, that o'er our shadowy earth hang brooding, Like a pale silver haze, betwixt the moon And the world's darker orb beautiful, hail Hail to thee from her midnight throne of ether, Night looks upon the slumbering universe. There is no breeze on silver-crowned tree, There is no breath on dew-bespangled ?ower, There is no wind sighs on the sleepy wave, There is no sound hangs in the solemn air.
