I think you forgot to add some details in this question but based on my research, the correct answer would be:
"At once a voice arose among The bleak twigs overhead
In a full-hearted evensong
Of joy illimited;
An aged thrush, frail, gaunt, and small,
In blast-beruffled plume,
Had chosen thus to fling his soul
Upon the growing gloom."

Thank you for posting your question. I hope that this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.
