The Fingers of the Light (1000) Lyrics

The Fingers of the Light
Tapped soft upon the Town
With "I am great and cannot wait
So therefore let me in."

"You're soon," the Town replied,
"My Faces are asleep—
But swear, and I will let you by,
You will not wake them up."

The easy Guest complied
But once within the Town
The transport of His Countenance
Awakened Maid and Man

The Neighbor in the Pool
Upon His Hip elate
Made loud obeisance and the Gnat
Held up His Cup for Light.

    It don’t sound so terrible—quite—as it did (426)
  200. 210.
    It Dropped So Low -- In My Regard

    It feels a shame to be Alive (444)
  202. 212.
    It knew no Medicine (559)
  203. 213.
    It struck me every day
  204. 214.
    It tossed—and tossed (723)
  205. 215.
    It was given to me by the Gods (454)
  206. 216.
    It will be Summer—eventually (342)
  207. 217.
    It would never be Common—more—I said (430)
  208. 218.
    It’s coming—the postponeless Creature (390)
  209. 219.
    It’s easy to invent a Life (724)
  210. 220.
    It’s like the light
  211. 221.
    It’s such a little thing to weep (189)
  212. 222.
    It’s thoughts—and just One Heart

  219. 229.
    Just as He spoke it from his Hands (848)
  220. 230.

  221. 231.
    Like Flowers, that heard the news of Dews (513)
  222. 232.
    Like Some Old fashioned Miracle (302)
  223. 233.
    Like trains of cars on tracks of plush
  224. 234.
    Love—thou art high (453)
  225. 235.
    Me from Myself—to banish (642)

  227. 238.
    Midsummer, was it, when They died (962)
  228. 239.
    Mine—by the Right of the White Election! (528)
  229. 240.
    More Life—went out—when He went (422)
  230. 241.
    Most she touched me by her muteness (760)
  231. 242.
    Much Madness is divinest Sense
  232. 243.
    My best Acquaintances are those (932)
  233. 244.
    My first well Day—since many ill (574)
  234. 245.
    My Garden—like the Beach (484)
  235. 246.
    My Portion is Defeat—today (639)
  236. 247.
    My Reward for Being, was This (343)
  237. 248.
    My Soul—accused me—And I quailed (753)
  238. 249.
    Nature rarer uses yellow
  239. 250.
    Nature—sometimes sears a Sapling (314)
  240. 251.
    New feet within my garden go (99)
  241. 252.
    No Crowd that has occurred (515)
  242. 253.
    No Man can compass a Despair (477)
  243. 254.
    No matter—now—Sweet (704)
  244. 255.
    No Other can reduce (982)
  245. 256.
    No Prisoner be (720)
  246. 257.
    No Rack can torture me (384)
  247. 258.
    Not ”Revelation”—’tis—that waits (685)
  248. 259.
    Not in this world to see his face
  249. 260.
    Not that We did, shall be the test (823)
  250. 261.
    Of all the Sounds despatched abroad (321)
  251. 262.
    Of Being is a Bird (653)
  252. 263.
    Of Course—I prayed (376)
  253. 264.
    Of Silken Speech and Specious Shoe (896)
  254. 265.
    Of Tolling Bell I ask the cause? (947)
  255. 266.
    On that dear Frame the Years had worn (940)
  256. 267.
    Once more, my now bewildered Dove (48)
  257. 268.
    One and One—are One (769)
  258. 269.
    Our journey had advanced
  259. 270.
    Our share of night to bear (113)
  260. 271.
    Ourselves were wed one summer—dear (631)
  261. 272.
    Over and over, like a Tune (367)
  262. 273.
    Pain Has An Element
  263. 274.
    Pain has an element of Blank (650)
