Excerpt from Summer Sonnets: And Other Verses
The Poet's Harp
Oh for the poet's harp of golden strings,
Whose music is the echo of God's thought
With earth's familiar voices interwrought!
A far-off melody divine, that brings
A fragment of the song the seraph sings
Before God's throne. The mystic chord long sought,
Dropping through space, is by the poet caught,
Then like a bird whose once undrooping wings
Have wearied in earth's heavy atmosphere,
It nestles to the poet's heart, and sings
Sweet cadences that none but he can hear,
And as he listens all his being thrills
With rapture greater than his soul can bear,
And so he sings it to the woods and hills.
