And one star, large and soft and lone,
A cold, white waste of snow-drifts lies,
Silently lights the unclouded skies.
And far away a mountain zone,
Profoundly still the twilight air,
Lifeless the landscape; so we deem
Till like a phantom gliding near
A stag bends down to drink the stream.
Hurriedly through its ferny dells.
The waves of some wild streamlet pour
Speak of the North! A lonely moor
Silent and dark and tractless swells,
