| BLOOM upon the Mountain, stated, | |
| Blameless of a name. | |
| Efflorescence of a Sunset— | |
| Reproduced, the same. | |
| |
| Seed, had I, my purple sowing | 5 |
| Should endow the Day, | |
| Not a tropic of the twilight | |
| Show itself away. | |
| |
| Who for tilling, to the Mountain | |
| Come, and disappear— | 10 |
| Whose be Her renown, or fading, | |
| Witness, is not here. | |
| |
| While I state—the solemn petals | |
| Far as North and East, | |
| Far as South and West expanding, | 15 |
| Culminate in rest. | |
| |
| And the Mountain to the Evening | |
| Fit His countenance, | |
| Indicating by no muscle | |
| The Experience. | 20 |
