| 521. The World’s Wanderers |
| | | Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822) |
| |
| |
| TELL me, thou Star, whose wings of light | |
| Speed thee in thy fiery flight, | |
| In what cavern of the night | |
| Will thy pinions close now? | |
| |
| Tell me, Moon, thou pale and gray | 5 |
| Pilgrim of heaven’s homeless way, | |
| In what depth of night or day | |
| Seekest thou repose now? | |
| |
| Weary Mind, who wanderest | |
| Like the world’s rejected guest, | 10 |
| Hast thou still some secret nest | |
| On the tree or billow? | |
