John Keble


Blithe, as if on earth Were no such thing as woe.	1
Enfolds … like mist.	2
As fair, As Sion in her height of pride.	3
Gaze fix’d … as one who deep in heaven some airy pageant sees.	4
As pure from sin and stain, as his when Eden held his virgin heart.	5
Soft as Memnon’s harp at morning.	6
Soft as imprison’d martyr’s deathbed calm.	7
