Ah me! the eager heart desires, So thronging swift they came, My spirit surged like wind swept fires, I knew not which to name. —Then all at once, I quickly quaffed The shining drops; but lo, The wish with that enchanted draught No man must ever know! AH ME THE EAGER HEART DESIRES SO THRONGING SWIFT THEY CAME MY SPIRIT SURGED LIKE WIND SWEPT FIRES I KNEW NOT WHICH TO NAME THEN ALL AT ONCE I QUICKLY QUAFFED THE SHINING DROPS BELOW THE WISH WITH THAT ENCHANTED DRAUGHT NO MAN MUST EVER KNOW
entle blessings in the shade and shine; And granting gracious patience to my plea, Some simple lesson of your lore make mine, Make mine, I pray! O, be a kindly teacher unto me, And I’ll pour out such worshipful heart-wine, Not any bird that sings to you all day, Or nestles to low, leafy lullaby, Shall hold you in such dear observance, nay, Nor love you half so tenderly as I. _THE REDBIRD_ Swept lightly by the south wind The elm leaves softly stirred, And in their pale green clusters There straightway bloomed a bird! His glossy feathers glistened With dyes as richly red As any tulip flaming From out the garden bed. But ah, unlike the tulips, In joyous strain, ere long, This redbird flower unfolded A heart of golden song! _THE WISHING-SPRING_ I knelt beside the fairy spring, Among the tasseled weeds; Far off, with dreamy murmuring, The wind piped through the reeds. Once, twice, the brimming cup I raised With trembling finger-tips, And in its limpid crystal gazed, Nor laid it to my lips.
