The rosy mist stilly polishes the round mirror,
    The moon;
    Golden her face

Reflecting the cool sweet glory of a
    Baby sun
    When dangling

His short golden arms in the cradle of the sky
    After night
    Gave him birth,

And herself died as day dies to see the moon,
    This golden
    Rose-washed stone

That the unseen hand puts on the crown of night
    Beside it puts
    Bits of white—

The star-jewels like million fancies, worshipping
    The goddess
    Of dream.
