NEW SPRING: 37, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Stars with golden feet are wand'ring
Last Line: Or the nightingale alone?
Subject(s): Spring; Stars


STARS with golden feet are wand'ring
Yonder, and they gently weep
That they cannot earth awaken,
Who in night's arms is asleep.

List'ning stand the silent forests,
Every leaf an ear doth seem!
How its shadowy arm the mountain
Stretcheth out, as though in dream

What call'd yonder? In my bosoin
Rings the echo of the tone.
Was it my beloved one speaking,
Or the nightingale alone?
