He formed no plans for happiness; content
To curl the tendril, fold the bud; his pain
So light, he scarcely felt his banishment.
Zóphiël, perchance, had held him in disdain;

But, formed for friendship, from his o'erfraught soul
'Twas such relief his burning thoughts to pour
In other ears, that oft the strong control
Of pride he felt them burst, and could restrain no more.
'Twas such relief his burning thoughts to pour
In other ears, that oft the strong control
Of pride he felt them burst, and could restrain no more.
Zóphiël was soft, but yet all flame: by turns
Love, grief, remorse, shame, pity, jealousy,
Each boundless in his breast, impels or burns:
His joy was bliss, his pain was agony.
Love, grief, remorse, shame, pity, jealousy,
Each boundless in his breast, impels or burns:
His joy was bliss, his pain was agony.
And mild Phraërion was of heaven; and there
Nothing imperfect in its kind can be:
There every form is fresh, soft, bright, and fair,
Yet differing each with that variety—
Nothing imperfect in its kind can be:
There every form is fresh, soft, bright, and fair,
Yet differing each with that variety—
Not least of miracles—which here we trace,
And wonder, and admire the cause that formed
So like, and yet so different every face,
Though of the selfsame clay, by the same process warmed.
