# The Complete Poems of Paul Laurence Dunbar/At Candle-Lightin' Time

AT CANDLE-LIGHTIN' TIME
When I come in f'om de co'n-fiel' aftah wo'kin' ha'd all day, It 's amazin' nice to fin' my suppah all erpon de way; An' it 's nice to smell de coffee bubblin' ovah in de pot, An' it 's fine to see de meat a-sizzlin' teasin'-lak an' hot.
But when suppah-time is ovah, an' de t'ings is cleahed away; Den de happy hours dat foller are de sweetes' of de day. When my co'ncob pipe is sta'ted, an' de smoke is drawin' prime, My ole 'ooman says, "I reckon, Ike, it 's candle-lightin' time."
Den de chillun snuggle up to me, an' all commence to call, "Oh, say, daddy, now it 's time to mek de shadders on de wall." So I puts my han's togethah—evah daddy knows de way,— An' de chillun snuggle closer roun' ez I begin to say:—
"Fus' thing, hyeah come Mistah Rabbit; don' you see him wo'k his eahs? Huh, uh! dis mus' be a donkey,—look, how innercent he 'pears! Dah 's de ole black swan a-swimmin'—ain't she got a' awful neck? Who 's dis feller dat 's a-comin'? Why, dat 's ole dog Tray, I 'spec'!"
Dat 's de way I run on, tryin' fu' to please 'em all I can; Den I hollahs, "Now be keerful—dis hyeah las' 's de buga-man!" An' dey runs an' hides dey faces; dey ain't skeered—dey 's lettin' on: But de play ain't raaly ovah twell dat buga-man is gone.
So I jes' teks up my banjo, an' I plays a little chune, An' you see dem haids come peepin' out to listen mighty soon. Den my wife says, "Sich a pappy fu' to give you sich a fright! Jes, you go to baid, an' leave him: say yo' prayers an' say good-night."

# The Complete Poems of Paul Laurence Dunbar/An Old Memory

AN OLD MEMORY
How sweet the music sounded  That summer long ago, When you were by my side, love,  To list its gentle flow.
I saw your eyes a-shining,  I felt your rippling hair, I kissed your pearly cheek, love,  And had no thought of care.
And gay or sad the music,  With subtle charm replete; I found in after years, love  'Twas you that made it sweet.
For standing where we heard it,  I hear again the strain; It wakes my heart, but thrills it  With sad, mysterious pain.
It pulses not so joyous  As when you stood with me, And hand in hand we listened  To that low melody.
Oh, could the years turn back, love!  Oh, could events be changed To what they were that time, love,  Before we were estranged;
Wert thou once more a maiden  Whose smile was gold to me; Were I once more the lover  Whose word was life to thee,—
O God! could all be altered,  The pain, the grief, the strife, And wert thou—as thou shouldst be—  My true and loyal wife!
But all my tears are idle,  And all my wishes vain. What once you were to me, love,  You may not be again.
For I, alas! like others,  Have missed my dearest aim. I asked for love. Oh, mockery!  Fate comes to me with fame!

# The Complete Poems of Paul Laurence Dunbar/An Ante-Bellum Sermon

WE is gathahed hyeah, my brothahs,  In dis howlin' wildaness, Fu' to speak some words of comfo't  To each othah in distress. An' we chooses fu' ouah subjic'  Dis -- we'll 'splain it by an' by; "An' de Lawd said, ' Moses, Moses,'  An' de man said, 'Hyeah am I.'"
Now ole Pher'oh, down in Egypt,  Was de wuss man evah bo'n, An' he had de Hebrew chillun  Down dah wukin' in his co'n; 'T well de Lawd got tiahed o' his foolin',  An' sez he: "I'll let him know -- Look hyeah, Moses, go tell Pher'oh  Fu' to let dem chillun go."
"An' ef he refuse to do it,  I will make him rue de houah, Fu' I'll empty down on Egypt  All de vials of my powah." Yes, he did -- an' Pher'oh's ahmy  Was n't wuth a ha'f a dime; Fu' de Lawd will he'p his chillun,  You kin trust him evah time.
An' yo' enemies may 'sail you  In de back an' in de front; But de Lawd is all aroun' you,  Fu' to ba' de battle's brunt. Dey kin fo'ge yo' chains an' shackles  F'om de mountains to de sea; But de Lawd will sen' some Moses  Fu' to set his chillun free.
An' de lan' shall hyeah his thundah,  Lak a blas' f'om Gab'el's ho'n, Fu' de Lawd of hosts is mighty  When he girds his ahmor on. But fu' feah some one mistakes me,  I will pause right hyeah to say, Dat I'm still a-preachin' ancient,  I ain't talkin' 'bout to-day.
But I tell you, fellah christuns,  Things'll happen mighty strange; Now, de Lawd done dis fu' Isrul,  An' his ways don't nevah change, An, de love he showed to Isrul  Was n't all on Isrul spent; Now don't run an' tell yo' mastahs  Dat I's preachin' discontent.
'Cause I is n't; I'se a-judgin'  Bible people by deir ac's; I'se a-givin' you de Scriptuah,  I'se a-handin' you de fac's. Cose ole Pher'oh b'lieved in slav'ry,  But de Lawd he let him see, Dat de people he put bref in, --  Evah mothah's son was free.
An' dahs othahs thinks lak Pher'oh,  But dey calls de Scriptuah liar, Fu' de Bible says "a servant  Is a-worthy of his hire." An' you cain't git roun' nor thoo dat  An' you cain't git ovah it, Fu' whatevah place you git in,  Dis hyeah Bible too 'll fit.
So you see de Lawd's intention,  Evah sence de worl' began, Was dat His almighty freedom  Should belong to evah man, But I think it would be bettah,  Ef I'd pause agin to say, Dat I'm talkin' 'bout ouah freedom  In a Bibleistic way.
But de Moses is a-comin',  An' he's comin', suah and fas' We kin hyeah his feet a-trompin',  We kin hyeah his trumpit blas'. But I want to wa'n you people,  Don't you git too brigity; An' don't you git to braggin'  'Bout dese things, you wait an' see.
But when Moses wif his powah  Comes an' sets us chillun free, We will praise de gracious Mastah  Dat has gin us liberty; An' we'll shout ouah halleluyahs,  On dat mighty reck'nin' day, When we'se reco'nised ez citiz'--  Huh uh! Chillun, let us pray!

Patronesses
The teaching is not merely confined to reading and writing; the main object of the Schools is to inculcate habits of industry, and to teach the principles and practice of the Christian Religion.
On the formation of the Schools, the plan of self-support was adopted, each child contributing a weekly payment—Infants, 1d.; Girls who are taught to work, and the ​younger Boys, pay 2d.; and the elder Boys, who are taught to write, 3d. Although these payments go some way towards the maintenance of the Establishment, yet the funds hitherto have been found very inadequate, and the deficiency has been supplied by voluntary contributions, the produce of bazaars, ladies' work. &c. One of the most successful sources of profit has been a small Volume, printed under the title of "Friendly Contributions;" the profits from the sale of this Work have been applied to the support of the Schools: three Volumes have already appeared, and the present forms the fourth.
It is conceived that it is unnecessary now to urge one word in favour of the absolute necessity of affording education to all; the question is narrowed to the consideration of what are the most efficient means by which this great object is to be accomplished; it is hoped that, notwithstanding the many excellent charities which claim the attention of the benevolent, few will be found unwilling to aid an Institution which, in addition to teaching to read and write, instils habits of industry and inculcates the principles of Christianity amongst the children of one of the poorest and most populous districts around London.

PREFACE.
HITHERTO the Contributions have appeared in a small volume: but a friend having furnished me with the Manuscripts of the following Letters, in order to do justice to the beautiful designs, it has been necessary to increase the size of the work. I trust that the merit of the drawings will reconcile my subscribers to the increased price.
The observation on the style fittest for domestic architecture, the description of the proposed house and the designs, are by Monsieur De Chateauneuf; to these, Mr. Eastlake kindly added a very valuable Letter on the Principles of Interior Decoration.
Monsieur De Chateauneuf is already known in this country by his elegant work, Architectura Domestica, and his design for the new Royal Exchange; all who have visited Hamburg must be well acquainted with the refined taste which characterizes the buildings erected under his superintendance.
It is but justice to M. De Chateauneuf to state that his letters were written merely as matter of amusement, and arose out of a discussion with a friend, as to which was the best style to be adopted for domestic architecture; the letters have been translated ​from the German, and unfortunately have not had the advantage of being submitted to the writer for correction.
It is proposed that the next volume should contain a reprint of the late Mr. Whately's admirable work on Modern Gardening; this it is hoped will be considered as a fit companion to the "Country House." I take this opportunity of thanking Mr. C. Knight and Mr. Jackson, who kindly furnished me with the blocks from which the vignettes have been printed.
