ODE

TO MUSIC

___

#

As I sat my soul all smarting

With injustice pain and woe,

Sudden music slow upstarting

Raised its voice in magic flow

And my being all began then with a pleasant heart to glow.

As I listen in seeming

Leave this mortal form behind

And with heav’lly beauties teeming

Self in regions higher find

Music seems above all earth, but to sign my aching mind,
