All he had lov’d, and moulded into thought,
From shape, and hue, and odour, and sweet sound,
Lamented Adonais. Morning sough
Her eastern watch-tower, and her hair unbound,
Wet with the tears which should adorn the ground,
Dimm’d the aëreal eyes that kindle day;
Afar the melancholy thunder moan’d
Pale Ocean in unquiet slumber lay,
And the wild winds flew around, sobbing their dismay.
