After dark vapours have oppress'd our plains
For a long dreary season, comes a day
Born of the gentle South, and clears away
From the sick heavens all unseemly stains

Who love their fellows even to the death,
Who feel the giant agony of the world,
And more, like slaves to poor humanity,
Labour for mortal good?

He played an ancient ditty, long since mute,
In Provence called, "La belle dame sans merci":

Blendeth its odor with the violet—
Solution sweet:
