THERE is another Loneliness
THERE is another Loneliness / That many die without,
The mountain sat upon the plain
In his eternal chair,
His observation omnifold,
His inquest everywhere.
The seasons prayed around his knees,
Like children round a sire:
Grandfather of the days is he,
Of dawn the ancestor.
THERE is another Loneliness / That many die without,
Bring me the sunset in a cup, / Reckon the morning's flagons up,
A LITTLE madness in the Spring / Is wholesome even for the King,
To hear an oriole sing / May be a common thing,
