Ode To Heaven: Cancelled Fragments

by Percy Bysshe Shelley

The [living frame which sustains my soul]
Is [sinking beneath the fierce control]
Down through the lampless deep of song
I am drawn and driven along --

When a Nation screams aloud
Like an eagle from the cloud

. . .

Watch the look askance and old--
See neglect, and falsehood fold. . . .

Published 1903.
