Fragment: To One Singing

by Percy Bysshe Shelley · (no date)
Published 01/07/1880

My spirit like a charmèd bark doth swim

Upon the liquid waves of thy sweet singing,

Far far away into the regions dim


Of rapture—as a boat, with swift sails winging

Its way adown some many-winding river,

Speeds through dark forests o'er the waters swinging...
