prologue: shadow and substance - dominick argento lyrics
as one who hangs down*bending from the side
of a slow*moving boat, upon the breast
of a still water, solacing himself
with such discoveries as his eye can make
beneath him in the bottom of the deep
sees many beauteous sights ** weeds, fishes, flowers
grots, pebbles, roots of trees, and fancies more
yet often is perplexed and cannot part
the shadow from the substance, rocks and sky
mountains and clouds, reflected in the depth
of the clear flood, from things which there abidе
in their true dwelling; now is crossеd by gleam
of his own image, by a sunbeam now
and wavering motions sent he knows not whence
impediment that make his task more sweet;
such pleasant office have i long pursued
incumbent o’er the surface of past time
