MIST

Mist, though I love thee not, who puttest down

Trout in the Lochs, (they feed not, as a rule,

At least on fly, in mere or river-pool

When fogs have fallen, and the air is lown,

And on each Ben, a pillow not a crown,

The fat folds rest,) thou, Mist, hast power to cool

The blatant declamations of the fool

Who raves reciting through the heather brown.

Much do I bar the matron, man, or lass

Who cries 'How lovely!' and who does not spare

When light and shadow on the mountain pass,--

Shadow and light, and gleams exceeding fair,

O'er rock, and glade, and glen,--to shout, the Ass,

To me, to me the Poet, 'Oh, look there!'
