O! it is sweet to weave aerial ties - ZaunköniG - 26.12.2010 O! it is sweet to weave aerial ties With fair and fond creations of our own, To keep the spirit buoyant on the rise Of that unebbing joyance which alone Engrosses life,—The consciousness of power To sluice pure waters from the fount of song. And far in lordly eminence to tower Above the world on pinions swift and strong ; Confronting greatness in her every form. By the deep sea, and where the thunders lower To pour from out their skirts th' Atlantic storm ; To keep unfading impress of each hour That Nature's beauty hallows, and to know Which is the purest tone her voice doth yield below ! |
