LORD TENNYSON
And deepens on and up ' the gates
Roll back, and far within For me the Heavenly Bridegroom waits,
To make me pure of sin. The sabbaths of Eternity,
One sabbath deep and wide A light upon the shining sea
The Bridegroom with his bride!
��7/2 Blow, Bugle , blow
THE splendour falls on castle walls And snowy summits old in story: The long light shakes across the lakes, And the wild cataract leaps in glory. Blow, bugle, blow, set the wild echoes flying, Blow, bugle; answer, echoes, dying, dying, dying-
O hark, O hear' how thin and clear,
And thinner, clearer, farther going' O sweet and far from cliff and scar
The horns of Elfland faintly blowing? Blow, let us hear the purple glens replying. Blow, bugle; answer, echoes, dying, dying, dying.
O love, they die in yon rich sky,
They faint on hill or field or river: Our echoes roll from soul to soul,
And grow for ever and for ever. Blow, bugle, blow, set the wild echoes flying, And answer, echoes, answer, dying, dying, dying.
