The Sweet Nightingale Sang

All Resolutions

A child wearing a foliage wreath looks upwards while sitting on a tree branch that spans a stream

Only overhead the sweet nightingale
Ever sang more sweet as the day might fail,
And snatches of its Elysian chant
Were mixed with the dreams of the Sensitive Plant.

(P. 55.)
