mellifluous: [muh-lif-loo-uhs] adj. sounding sweet and smooth (a mellifluous voice); filled with something (as honey) that sweetens
And I was free of haunts umbrageous;
Could wander in the mazy forest-house
Of squirrels, foxes shy, and antler’d deer,
And birds from coverts innermost and drear
Warbling for very joy mellifluous sorrow—
To me new born delights!----John Keats
34.Endymion
Book III
Nor jewelled phrase nor mere mellifluous rhyme
Reverberates aright, or ever shall,
One cadence of that infinite plain-song
Which is itself all music.
----Edwin Arlington Robinson
II. The Children of the Night
42. Octaves
