Fragment: 'Is It That in Some Brighter Sphere'

Percy Bysshe Shelley·1792–1822
Lines:8Movement:Romanticism
Is it that in some brighter sphereWe part from friends we meet with here?Or do we see the Future passOver the Present's dusky glass?Or what is that that makes us seemTo patch up fragments of a dream,Part of which comes true, and partBeats and trembles in the heart?
