Excerpt from To One From Arcady: And Other Poems

Sometimes I dreamed you came from Arcady, That you have lain upon the golden lawns In drowsy noontides with bronze-breasted fauns, Or mingled in their moonlight revelry, Danced 'mid the sapphire hills which girt the sea; That you have seen from out the reedy grass A pearl-limbed naiad loom (with hair like brass) Flecked| by the sun and shadows' tracery!

Aye, still the forest fragrance cleaves and clings TO your brown body and your perfumed hair; Still in your movement lurks wild woodland grace Of wind-stirred poplars (that make leafy lair For startled dryads when the satyr sings); Still you bring visions Of each God-loved place!
