I would live in your love as the sea-grasses live in the sea,
Borne up by each wave as it passes, drawn down by each wave that recedes;

I would beat with your heart as it beats, I would follow your soul

Spirit that form'd this scene,
These tumbled rock-piles grim and red,

These gorges, turbulent-clear streams, this naked freshness,
These formless wild arrays, for reasons of their own,
