Analysis of What About Thou Would Come Awhile?



I am sitting with a naive thrill
what about thou would come awhile
putting apart the greatness of thine laurel,
I sing to my mind this trill.

Should thou grant not thine display
in the direct way,
If possible, appear in the divine dream in thine way,
and I shall listen all hearsay
looking up to thine majestic ray.
