2
Old shadows linger in thine ancient gate,
3
Thy robe is grey, thine old heart now is still;
4
Thy towers silent in the mist await their crumbling end
5
While through the storeyed elms
6
The gliding black water leaves these inland realms,
7
And slips between long meadows to the Sea,

14
When flittering ghost-moths danced round
15
tapers in the moveless air nighttime
16
And doomed already were the radiant dawns,
17
The odour and the noise of meads,
18
when all thy trees were bent,
19
and shook with sudden whispering lament
20
