Go with them, and seem wheeling round to meet them,

See the near landscape fly and flow behind them,
While the remoter fields and dim horizons
Go with them, and seem wheeling round to meet them,
So in old age things near us slip away,
And distant things go with us.

There’s a star on the far horizon
Rising bright in an azure sky
