In the Forest... Oscar Wilde...
Out of the mid-wood's twilight
   Into the meadow's dawn,
Ivory limbed and brown-eyed,
   Flashes my faun !
He skips through the copses singing,
   And his shadow dances along,
And I know not which I should follow,
   Shadow or song !
O Hunter, snare me his shadow !
   O Nightingale, catch me his strain !
Else moonstruck with music and madness
   I track him in vain !
