I Heard You, Solemn-sweet Pipes of the Organ

I HEARD you, solemn-sweet pipes of the organ, as last

      Sunday morn I pass'd the church;

Winds of autumn!—as I walk'd the woods at dusk, I heard your long-stretch'd sighs, up above, so mournful;

I heard the perfect Italian tenor, singing at the opera

      —I heard the soprano in the midst of the quartet singing;

…Heart of my love!—you too I heard, murmuring

      low, through one of the wrists around my head;

Heard the pulse of you, when all was still, ringing little bells last night under my ear.
