Had one star alone won

Praise for light from far:

Nay, love needs his own one

Bright particular star.

Hope and recollection

Only lead him right

In its bright reflection

And collateral light.

Find as yet we may not

Comfort in its sphere:

Yet these days will weigh not

When it warms us here;

360 When full-orbed it rises,

360

Now divined afar:

None in all the skies is

Half so good a star;

None that seers importune

Till a sign be won:

Star of our good fortune,
