PAN AND THALASSIUS.
79

Hold fast to the green world's pleasance:
For I that am lord of it am
All.

THALASSIUS.

God,

God Pan, from the glad wood's portal
The breaths of thy song blow sweet:
But woods may be walked in of mortal
Man's thought, where never thy feet
Trod.

Thine
All secrets of growth and of birth are,
All glories of flower and of tree,
Wheresoever the wonders of earth are;
The words of the spell of the sea
Mine.
