In the depths of the purple sea;

The sanguine Sunrise, with his meteor eyes,

______ the light of its golden wings.
And when Sunset ______ breathe, from the lit sea beneath,
Its ardours of ______ and of love,
And the crimson pall of eve ______ fall
From the depth of Heaven above,
With wings ______ I rest, on mine aëry nest,
As still as ______ brooding dove.

That orbèd maiden with white fire laden,

Like strips of ______ sky fallen through me on high,
Are each paved ______ the moon and these.

When the whirlwinds my banner unfurl.
From cape ______ cape, with a bridge-like shape,
