Explore "Dawn" by Madison Cawein on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
/ I. Mist on the mountain height / Silvery creeping; / Incarnate beads of light / Bloom-cradled sleeping, / Dripped from the brow of Night.
/ II. Shadows, and winds that rise / Over the mountain; / Stars in the spar that lies / Cold in the fountain, / Pale as the quickened skies.
/ III. Sheep in the wattled folds / Dreamily bleating, / Dim on the thistled wolds, / Where, glad with meeting, / Morn the thin Night enfolds.
/ IV. Sleep on the moaning sea / Hushing his trouble; / Rest on the cares that be / Hued in Life's bubble, / Calm on the woes of me.
/ V. Mist from the mountain height / Hurriedly fleeting; / Star in the locks of Night / Throbbing and beating, / Thrilled with the coming light.
/ VI. Flocks on the musky strips; / Pearl in the fountain; / Winds from the forest's lips; / Red on the mountain; / Dawn from the Orient trips.
