Lo! what vast splendor met my startled eyes,
What unimagined space, what vision wide!
Turrets and domes, now blue, now softest green,
In one unbroken circuit kissed the skies;
While, veiled in soft clouds, radiant as a bride,
Shone one far sapphire peak till then unseen!
What unimagined space, what vision wide!
Turrets and domes, now blue, now softest green,
In one unbroken circuit kissed the skies;
While, veiled in soft clouds, radiant as a bride,
Shone one far sapphire peak till then unseen!
