Said the faun to the will-o'-the-wisp: <br />'You are fugitive, far!' <br />Said the will-o'-the-wisp to the faun: <br />'But more near than the star.' <br /> <br />Said the faun to the will-o'-the-wisp: <br />'You are white, you are cold!' <br />Said the will-o'-the-wisp to the faun: <br />'I am fire to the bold.' <br /> <br />Said the faun to the will-o'-the-wisp: <br />'You are fey, you are fair!' <br />Said the will-o'-the-wisp to the faun: <br />'If I be, have a care!' <br /> <br />It was far on the marsh that she fled; <br />It was far from the dawn. <br />Now the winds of the morning have found <br />Not her light nor the faun.<br /><br />George Sterling<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/witch-fire/
