MIST IN THE VALLEY. MIST in the valley, weeping mist Beset my homeward way. No gleam of rose or amethyst Hallowed the parting day A shroud, a shroud of awful gray i. Wrapped every woodland brow, And drooped in crumbling disarray Around each wintry bough. n. And closer round me now it clung Until I scarce could see The stealthy pathway over-hung By silent tree and tree A MIST IN THE VALLEY. Which floated in that mystery As poised in waveless deeps- Branching in worlds below the sea, The gray sea-forest sleeps. in. Mist in the valley, mist no less Within my groping mind The stile swam out a wilderness Rolled round it, gray and blind.

All round me pressed the hideous gray Corruption, To quench the last faint struggling ray till it seemed That in my spirit gleamed, VIII. Een as I groped along, the gloom Suddenly shook at my feet O, strangely as from a rending tomb In resurrection, sweet Swift wings tumultuously beat Away I paused to hark O, birds of thought, too fair, too fleet To follow across the dark IX...
