      GOLD, with an innermost speck1
     Of silver, singing afloat
         Beneath the night,
     Like balls of thistle-down
     Wandering up and down
     Over the whispering town
         Seeking where to alight!
 
     Slowly, above the street
     Above the ebb2 of feet
         Drifting in flight;
     Still, in the purple distance
     The gold of their strange persistence3
     As they cross and part and meet
         And pass out of sight!
 
     The seed-ball of the sun
     Is broken at last, and done
         Is the orb4 of day.
     Now to the separate ends
     Seed after day-seed wends
         A separate way.
 
     No sun will ever rise
     Again on the wonted skies
         In the midst of the spheres.
     The globe of the day, over-ripe,
     Is shattered at last beneath the stripe
     Of the wind, and its oneness veers5
         Out myriad-wise.
 
     Seed after seed after seed
     Drifts over the town, in its need
         To sink and have done;
     To settle at last in the dark,
     To bury its weary spark
         Where the end is begun.
 
     Darkness, and depth of sleep,
     Nothing to know or to weep
         Where the seed sinks in
