Listen in the reader

Canzon, to her whose spirit seems in sooth Akin unto the feldspar, since it is So clear and subtle and azure, I send thee, saying: That since I looked upon such potencies And glories as are here inscribed in truth, New boldness hath o'erthrown my long delaying, And that thy words my new-born powers obeying-- Voices at last to voice my heart's long mood-- Are come to greet her in their amplitude.
