Heard only in the trances of the blast,
Or if the secret ministry of frost
Shall hang them up in silent icicles,
Quietly shining to the quiet Moon.”

Deeper down in the well than where the water
Gives me back in a shining surface picture
Me myself in the summer heaven, godlike....”

Come and see my shining palaces built upon the sand.”
