Or as the stirring of a deep clear stream

Within an Alpine hollow, when the wind

Walks o’er it, was she shaken by the dream,

The mystical Usurper of the mind⁠—

O’erpowering us to be whate’er may seem

Good to the soul which we no more can bind;

Strange state of being! (for ’tis still to be)

Senseless to feel, and with sealed eyes to see.
