When I clamber to the heights of sleep,
Or when I grow excited with wine,
Suddenly I meet your face.”

Lying beneath me with its sounds and sights,—
A city in the twilight dim and vast,
With smoking roofs, soft bells, and gleaming lights,—
And hear above me on the autumnal blast
The cataract of Death far thundering from the heights.”
