we view<br>The sombre hours, that round thee stand<br>With down-cast eyes (a duteous band!)<br>Their dark robes dripping with the heavy dew.<br>Sorceress of the ebon throne!<br>Thy power the Pixies own,<br>When round thy raven brow<br>Heaven's lucent roses glow,<br>And clouds in watery colours drest<br>Float in light drapery o'er thy sable vest:<br>What time the pale moon sheds a softer day<br>Mellowing the woods beneath its pensive beam:<br>For mid the quivering light 'tis ours to play,<br>Aye dancing to the cadence of the stream.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">VIII.<br>Welcome, Ladies! to the cell<br>Where the blameless Pixies dwell:<br>But thou, sweet Nymph! proclaimed our Faery Queen,<br>With what obeisance meet<br>Thy presence shall we greet?<br>For lo! attendant on thy steps are seen<br>Graceful Ease in artless stole,<br>And white-robed Purity of soul,<br>With Honour's softer mien;<br>Mirth of the loosely-flowing hair,<br>And meek-eyed Pity eloquently fair,<br>Whose tearful cheeks are lovely to the view,<br>As snow-drop wet with dew.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">IX.<br>Unboastful Maid!
