    It is not growing like a tree
    In bulk, doth make man better be;
    Or standing long an oak, three hundred year,
    To fall a log at last, dry, bald, and sere:
    A lily of a day
    Is fairer far in May,
    Although it falls and die that night--
    It was the plant and flower of Light.

To one clear harp in divers tones,

To one clear harp in divers tones,
That men may rise on stepping stones
Or their dead selves to higher things.

The place is all awave with trees,
Limes, myrtles, purple-beaded,
Acacias having drunk the lees
Of the night-dew, fain headed,
And wan, grey olive-woods, which seem
The fittest foliage for a dream.
