Alfred Lord Tennyson - Milton (Alcaics)

Alfred Lord Tennyson - Milton (Alcaics)

O mighty-mouth'd inventor of harmonies, br O skill'd to sing of Time or Eternity, br God-gifted organ-voice of England, br Milton, a name to resound for ages; br Whose Titan angels, Gabriel, Abdiel, br Starr'd from Jehovah's gorgeous armouries, br Tower, as the deep-domed empyrean br Rings to the roar of an angel onset-- br Me rather all that bowery loneliness, br The brooks of Eden mazily murmuring, br And bloom profuse and cedar arches br Charm, as a wanderer out in ocean, br Where some refulgent sunset of India br Streams o'er a rich ambrosial ocean isle, br And crimson-hued the stately palm-woods br Whisper in odorous heights of even.
