Felicia Dorothea Hemans - Design And Performance
Work rating: Low

They float before my soul, the fair designs 
Which I would body forth to life and power, 
Like clouds that with their wavering hues and lines 
Portray majestic building—dome and tower, 
Bright spire, that through the rainbow and the shower 
Points to the unchanging stars; and high arcade, 
Far-sweeping to some glorious altar made 
For holiest rites. 
                             Meanwhile the waning hour 
Melts from me, and by fervent dreams overwrought 
I sink. O friend! O linked with each high thought! 
Aid me, of those rich visions to detain 
All I may grasp; until thou seest fulfilled, 
While time and strength allow, my hope to build 
For lowly hearts devout, but one enduring fane!
