When I Set Out for Lyonnesse

When I set out for Lyonnesse,
A hundred miles away,
The rime was on the spray,
And starlight lit my lonesomeness
When I set out for Lyonnesse
A hundred miles away.

What would bechance at Lyonnesse
While I should sojourn there
No prophet durst declare,
Nor did the wisest wizard guess
What would bechance at Lyonnesse
While I should sojourn there.

When I came back from Lyonnesse
With magic in my eyes,
All marked with mute surmise
My radiance rare and fathomless,
When I came back from Lyonnesse
With magic in my eyes!

Thomas Hardy

Beautiful. The White city makes the colour all the more vibrant, and the colour makes the white all the more apparent!

your use of color is beautiful to behold. This piece relaxes me, wishing I was sitting in the field with nothing to do. (one question.. I am not sure what the white figure is in the middle of the painting? A mountain?)
