The Legend of St. Loy | ||
VIII.
“She was a votary, whose knee“E'er bowed at Nature's shrine,
57
“And love, and awe divine.
“She heard, and saw, in each grove a spirit,
“And nymphs each wildering wood inherit;
“In every stream a Naiad fair
“Pour forth her urn, and braid her hair;
“A Genius in the shaggy dell;
“A voice within the silent cell:
“And peopled each airy solitude,
“With visionary beings rude.
“Sweet forms, of light and music blended,
“On the glad rainbow's arch descended,
“And whispered to her musing soul
“Strains, from the harps of Angels stole—
“Yea, to her purged, less earthly ears
“Revealed the concent of the spheres.
“Her heart so gentle, meek, and mild,
“Upon my Arabel I smiled—
“How could I act a sterner part,
“To such a mild and filial heart?
“But yet 'twas done—and, Oh, by me,
“My gentle Arabel, to thee!—
