| | | A MIGHTY star has drawn a-nigh, and now | |
| Is vibrant in the air; | |
| The trembling, half-divested trees of his | |
| Bright presence are aware. | |
| |
| And Night has told it to the hills, and told | 5 |
| The partridge in the nest; | |
| And left it on the long white roads that she | |
| Gives light instead of rest. | |
| |
| I watch it in the stream, the stranger-star, | |
| Pulsing from marge to main: | 10 |
| What mould will be my flesh and bone before | |
| That star is there again! | | | | |
