Through vales of Thrace, Peneus' stream is flowing - ZaunköniG - 23.07.2007
Through vales of Thrace, Peneus' stream is flowing
Past legend-peopled hillsides to the deep;
From Pæstum's rose-hung plains soft winds are blowing;
The halls of Amber lie in haunted sleep;
The Cornish sea is silent with the Summer
That once bore Iseult from the Irish shore;
And lovely lone Fiesole is dumber
Than when Lorenzo's garland-guests it wore.
This eve for us the emerald clearness glowing
Over the stream, where late was ruddy might,
Whispers a wonder, dumb to other knowing,--
Known but to you, the silence, and the night.
Our boat drifts breathless the last light is dying;
Stars, dawn, shall find us here together lying.
