SONNET TO THE LARK.
Sweet lark! I hear thy thrilling note on high,The note of rapture, that thy bosom pours
To Spring's fresh gales, green plains and azure sky,
As o'er the mountains steal Morn's blushing hours.
With silent step they come and meekened grace,
In twilight's veil half-hid from mortal view,
Wafting rich fragrance through the crystal space,
O'er groves and valleys shedding April dew.
Gay bird! now all the woods in silence sleep,
How sweet thy music comes upon the air,
And dies at distance, as, up heaven's blue steep,
Thou, lessening, soar'st to meet Aurora's star!
Oh! bird of hope and joy, thou point'st the way
That I would go—high o'er life's cloudy day!
