Lefroy, Edward Cracroft: On the Beach in November - ZaunköniG - 24.06.2007 On the Beach in November My heart's Ideal, that somewhere out of sight Art beautiful and gracious and alone,-- Haply, where blue Saronic waves are blown On shores that keep some touch of old delight,-- How welcome thy memory, and how bright, To one who watches over leagues of stone These chilly northern waters creep and moan From weary morning unto weary night. O Shade-form, lovelier than the living crowd, So kind to votaries, yet thyself unvowed, So free to human fancies, fancy-free, My vagrant thought goes out to thee, to thee, As wandering lonelier than the Poet's cloud, I listen to the wash of this dull sea. |
