IV

Art trumpeter of Dwarfland? does thy horn

Inform the gnomes and goblins of the hour

When they may gambol under haw and thorn,

Straddling each winking web and twinkling flower?

Or bell-ringer of Elfland? whose tall tower

The liriodendron is? from whence is borne

The elfin music of thy bell's deep bass,

To summon Faeries to their starlit maze,

To summon them or warn.
