I Heard You Solemn-Sweet Pipes of the Organ.

Part of the cluster CHILDREN OF ADAM.

I HEARD YOU SOLEMN-SWEET PIPES OF THE ORGAN.

I HEARD you solemn-sweet pipes of the organ as last Sunday morn  
 I pass'd the church,
Winds of autumn, as I walk'd the woods at dusk I heard your  
 long-stretch'd sighs up above so mournful,
I heard the perfect Italian tenor singing at the opera, I heard the  
 soprano in the midst of the quartet singing;
Heart of my love! you too I heard murmuring low through one  
 of the wrists around my head,
Heard the pulse of you when all was still ringing little bells last  
 night under my ear.
