LOOK AND LIST, LOVE.
27
And see! the priest of Nature now
Seems bending from above,
With his own gentle hand to set
The signet of our love.
          Look, love.

List to the murmurs sweet and wild
That from the ocean swell,
Like the mysterious melodies
Heard in its music-shell;
And they will speak of memories
That in our bosoms sleep,
Unseen and beautiful, like pearls
Within the sea's blue deep.
          List, love.

List to the spirit-minstrelsy
That steals from yon bright stars,
As in their watch of love they float
High on their golden cars;
