Impossible´ how dearly they embrace��
His lady smiles�察�delight is in her face��
It is no treachery。
;Dear brother mine��
Endymion�察�weep not so� �Why shouldst thou pine
When all great Latmos so exalt will be��
Thank the great gods�察�and look not bitterly��
And speak not one pale word�察�and sigh no more。
Sure I will not believe thou hast such store
Of grief�察�to last thee to my kiss again。
Thou surely canst not bear a mind in pain��
Come hand in hand with one so beautiful。
Be happy both of you� �for I will pull
The flowers of autumn for your coronals。
Pan's holy priest for young Endymion calls��
And when he is restor'd�察�thou�察�fairest dame��
Shalt be our queen。 Now�察�is it not a shame
To see ye thus�察� not very�察�very sad��
Perhaps ye are too happy to be glad��
O feel as if it were a common day��
Free´voic'd as one who never was away。
No tongue shall ask�察�whence come ye�拭�but ye shall
Be gods of your own rest imperial。
Not even I�察�for one whole month�察�will pry
Into the hours that have pass'd us by��
Since in my arbour I did sing to thee。
O Hermes� �on this very night will be
A hymning up to Cynthia�察�queen of light��
For the soothsayers old saw yesternight
Good visions in the air�察� whence will befal��
As say these sages�察�health perpetual
To shepherds and their flocks�察�and furthermore��
In Dian's face they read the gentle lore��
Therefore for her these vesper´carols are。
Our friends will all be there from nigh and far。
Many upon thy death have ditties made��
And many�察�even now�察�their foreheads shade
With cypress�察�on a day of sacrifice。
New singing for our maids shalt thou devise��
And pluck the sorrow from our huntsmen's brows。
Tell me�察�my lady´queen�察�how to espouse
This wayward brother to his rightful joys��
His eyes are on thee bent�察�as thou didst poize
His fate most goddess´like。 Help me�察�I pray��
To lure´ Endymion�察�dear brother�察�say
What ails thee�拭─�He could bear no more�察�and so
Bent his soul fiercely like a spiritual bow��
And twang'd it inwardly�察�and calmly said��
;I would have thee my only friend�察�sweet maid��
My only visitor� �not ignorant though��
That those deceptions which for pleasure go
'Mong men�察�are pleasures real as real may be��
But there are higher ones I may not see��
If impiously an earthly realm I take。
Since I saw thee�察�I have been wide awake
Night after night�察�and day by day�察�until
Of the empyrean I have drunk my fill。
Let it content thee�察�Sister�察�seeing me
More happy than betides mortality。
A hermit young�察�I'll live in mossy cave��
Where thou alone shalt come to me�察�and lave
Thy spirit in the wonders I shall tell。
Through me the shepherd realm shall prosper well��
For to thy tongue will I all health confide。
And�察�for my sake�察�let this young maid abide
With thee as a dear sister。 Thou alone��
Peona�察�mayst return to me。 I own
This may sound strangely�此�but when�察�dearest girl��
Thou seest it for my happiness�察�no pearl
Will trespass down those cheeks。 Companion fair��
Wilt be content to dwell with her�察�to share
This sister's love with me�拭─�Like one resign'd
And bent by circumstance�察�and thereby blind
In self´commitment�察�thus that meek unknown��
;Aye�察�but a buzzing by my ears has flown��
Of jubilee to Dian�此� truth I heard��
Well then�察�I see there is no little bird��
Tender soever�察�but is Jove's own care��
Long have I sought for rest�察�and�察�unaware��
Behold I find it� �so exalted too��
So after my own heart� �I knew�察�I knew
There was a place untenanted in it��
In that same void white Chastity shall sit��
And monitor me nightly to lone slumber。
With sanest lips I vow me to the number
Of Dian's sisterhood�察�and�察�kind lady��
With thy good help�察�this very night shall see
My future days to her fane consecrate。;
As feels a dreamer what doth most create
His own particular fright�察�so these three felt��
Or like one who�察�in after ages�察�knelt
To Lucifer or Baal�察�when he'd pine
After a little sleep�此�or when in mine
Far under´ground�察�a sleeper meets his friends
Who know him not。 Each diligently bends
Towards common thoughts and things for very fear��
Striving their ghastly malady to cheer��
By thinking it a thing of yes and no��
That housewives talk of。 But the spirit´blow
Was struck�察�and all were dreamers。 At the last
Endymion said�此 �Are not our fates all cast��
Why stand we here�拭�Adieu�察�ye tender pair��
Adieu� ─�Whereat those maidens�察�with wild stare��
Walk'd dizzily away。 Pained and hot
His eyes went after them�察�until they got
Near to a cypress grove�察�whose deadly maw��
In one swift moment�察�would what then he saw
Engulph for ever。 ;Stay� ─�he cried�察 �ah�察�stay��
Turn�察�damsels� �hist� �one word I have to say。
Sweet Indian�察�I would see thee once again。
It is a thing I dote on�此�so I'd fain��
Peona�察�ye should hand in hand repair
Into those holy groves�察�that silent are
Behind great Dian's temple。 I'll be yon��
At Vesper's earliest twinkle´ they are gone´
But once�察�once�察�once again´; At this he press'd
His hands against his face�察�and then did rest
His head upon a mossy hillock green��
And so remain'd as he a corpse had been
All the long day�察�save when he scantly lifted
His eyes abroad�察�to see how shadows shifted
With the slow move of time�察� sluggish and weary
Until the poplar tops�察�in journey dreary��
Had reach'd the river's brim。 Then up he rose��
And�察�slowly as that very river flows��
Walk'd towards the temple grove with this lament��
;Why such a golden eve�拭�The breeze is sent
Careful and soft�察�that not a leaf may fall
Before the serene father of them all
Bows down his summer head below the west。
Now am I of breath�察�speech�察�and speed possest��
But at the setting I must bid adieu
To her for the last time。 Night will strew
On the damp grass myriads of lingering leaves��
And with them shall I die�察�nor much it grieves
To die�察�when summer dies on the cold sward。
Why�察�I have been a butterfly�察�a lord
Of flowers�察�garlands�察�love´knots�察�silly posies��
Groves�察�meadows�察�melodies�察�and arbour roses��
My kingdom's at its death�察�and just it is
That I should die with it�此�so in all this
We miscall grief�察�bale�察�sorrow�察�heartbreak�察�woe��
What is there to plain of�拭�By Titan's foe
I am but rightly serv'd。; So saying�察�he
Tripp'd lightly on�察�in sort of deathful glee��
Laughing at the clear stream and setting sun��
As though they jests had been�此�nor had he done
His laugh at nature's holy countenance��
Until that grove appear'd�察�as if perchance��
And then his tongue with sober seemlihed
Gave utterance as he enter'd�此 �Ha� �I said��
King of the butterflies�察�but by this gloom��
And by old Rhadamanthus' tongue of doom��
This dusk religion�察�pomp of solitude��
And the Promethean clay by thief endued��
By old Saturnus' forelock�察�by his head
Shook with eternal palsy�察�I did wed
Myself to things of light from infancy��
And thus to be cast out�察�thus lorn to die��
Is sure enough to make a mortal man
Grow impious。; So he inwardly began
On things for which no wording can be found��
Deeper and deeper sinking�察�until drown'd
Beyond the reach of music�此�for the choir
Of Cynthia he heard not�察�though rough briar
Nor muffling thicket interpos'd to dull
The vesper hymn�察�far swollen�察�soft and full��
Through the dark pillars of those sylvan aisles。
He saw not the two maidens�察�nor their smiles��
Wan as primroses gather'd at midnight
By chilly finger'd spring。 ;Unhappy wight��
Endymion� ─�said Peona�察 �we are here��
What wouldst thou ere we all are laid on bier�拭�
Then he embrac'd her�察�and his lady's hand
Press'd�察�saying�此 �Sister�察�I would have command��
If it were heaven's will�察�on our sad fate。;
At which that dark´eyed stranger stood elate
And said�察�in a new voice�察�but sweet as love��
To Endymion's amaze�此 �By Cupid's dove��
And so thou shalt� �and by the lilly truth
Of my own breast thou shalt�察�beloved youth� �
And as she spake�察�into her face there came
Light�察�as reflected from a silver flame��
Her long black hair swell'd ampler�察�in display
Full golden�察�in her eyes a brighter day
Dawn'd blue and full of love。 Aye�察�he beheld
Phoebe�察�his passion� �joyous she upheld
Her lucid bow�察�continuing thus�此 �Drear�察�drear
Has our delaying been�察�but foolish fear
Withheld me first�察�and then decrees of fate��
And then 'twas fit that from this mortal state
Thou shouldst�察�my love�察�by some unlook'd for change
Be spiritualiz'd。 Peona�察�we shall range
These forests�察�and to thee they safe shall be
As was thy cradle�察�hither shalt thou flee
To meet us many a time。; Next Cynthia bright
Peona kiss'd�察�and bless'd with fair good night��
Her brother kiss'd her too�察�and kn
