# The House on the Borderland/The Fragments

(The legible portions of the mutilated leaves.)
... through tears ... noise of eternity in my ears, we parted ... She whom I love. O, my God ...!
I was a great time dazed, and then I was alone in the blackness of the night. I knew that I journeyed back, once more, to the known universe. Presently, I emerged from that enormous darkness. I had come among the stars ... vast time ... the sun, far and remote.
I entered into the gulf that separates our system from the outer suns. As I sped across the dividing dark, I watched, steadily, the ever-growing brightness and size of our sun. Once, I glanced back to the stars, and saw them shift, as it were, in my wake, against the mighty background of night, so vast was the speed of my passing spirit.
I drew nigher to our system, and now I could see the shine of Jupiter. Later, I distinguished the cold, blue gleam of the earthlight.... I had a moment of bewilderment. All about the sun there seemed to be bright, objects, moving in rapid orbits. Inward, nigh to the savage glory of the sun, there circled two darting points of light, and, further off, there flew a blue, shining speck, that I knew to be the earth. It circled the sun in a space that seemed to be no more than an earth-minute.
... nearer with great speed. I saw the radiances of Jupiter and Saturn, spinning, with incredible swiftness, in huge orbits. And ever I drew more nigh, and looked out upon this strange sight—the visible circling of the planets about the mother sun. It was as though time had been annihilated for me; so that a year was no more to my unfleshed spirit, than is a moment to an earth-bound soul.
The speed of the planets, appeared to increase; and, presently, I was watching the sun, all ringed about with hairlike circles of different colored fire—the paths of the planets, hurtling at mighty speed, about the central flame....
"... the sun grew vast, as though it leapt to meet me.... And now I was within the circling of the outer planets, and flitting swiftly, toward the place where the earth, glimmering through the blue splendor of its orbit, as though a fiery mist, circled the sun at a monstrous speed...."

WITH MY BOOK
SHE waits, "to curiosity a prey," Wondering what gift will greet her festive day; Fly, thou dull thing! and hail her with a song: I have withheld my messenger too long; For in those eyes the beautiful disdain Methought I saw, made me misprize my strain.
But now that Christmas brings the bolder mind I fling my fancy to December's wind, And my caged bird unprison to the blast, To soar, and light upon her hand at last.
Go greet my lady, not where flatterers throng, But in her closet let her spell thy song; And ask no thanks; for often with her look She gave me many volumes for my book.
And she hath spoke not many times nor much (Some feel a stroke what others call a touch); But when she spoke, and when I listened first, 'Twas like an orchestra's harmonious burst; And when she smiled, and I received her smile, It seemed a sun-break out on Capris Isle.

# The Galaxy/Volume 5/Number 6/To a Lady

TO A LADY,
WITH A PERFECT EAR—OF CORN.
IN the days when marble beauty Was worshipped in Homer's land, Men builded a fane at Cnidos To hallow the Dorian strand, And Athens gave them a statue From their greatest master's hand.
Aphrodite was their goddess, When beauty and goodness were one; Ev'n as now—at times—if seldom, In forms not made of stone, To be good—we find—and be lovely Was not given to gods alone.
Those Greeks— they had finer senses, It is thought, in those old days— Though never a Ruskin had schooled them On grace and its rules and its ways— And the perfect ear of Praxiteles Woke a Dorian poet's praise.
Art needs the poet and critic— To make men understand; But behold an Ear, past praising, From a greater Master's hand! Who holds the spring-time and seed-time, And the harvest in command.
The rose hath a flaw—and the ruby, Had we but fine eyes to see: My gift—like the world—is not faultless, But will something nearer be, In my thought, to perfection, When it cometh, my love, to thee.
T. W. Parsons.

# The International Folk-Lore Congress of the World's Columbian Exposition, Chicago, July, 1893/Telling the Bees

EUGENE FIELD
TELLING THE BEES.
BY EUGENE FIELD.
Out of the house where the slumberer lay Grandfather came one summer day; And under the pleasant orchard trees He spake this-wise to the murmuring bees; "The clover-bloom that kissed her feet And the posie-bed where she used to play Have honey store, but none so sweet As ere our little one went away, O bees, sing soft, and, bees, sing low; For she is gone who loved you so."
A wonder fell on the listening bees Under those pleasant orchard trees, And in their toil that summer day Ever their murmuring seemed to say; "Child, child, the grass is cool. And the posies are waking to hear the song Of the bird that swings by the shaded pool, "Waiting for one that tarrieth long." 'Twas so they called to the little one then. As if to call her back' again.
O gentle bees, I have come to say That grandfather fell to sleep to-day. And we know by the smile on grandfather's face. He has found his dear one's biding place. So, bees, sing soft, and, bees, sing low. As over the honey-fields you sweep,— To the trees a-bloom and the flowers a-blow Sing of grandfather fast asleep; And ever beneath these orchard trees Find cheer and shelter, gentle bees.
​Ladies and Gentlemen:
Some of the most charming literature we have in the line of folk-lore has been done by women. Speaking for myself, I am very proud to acknowledge on this occasion, that it was a woman who first interested me in folk-lore, or, more accurately speaking, in folk song, for it was not until I had read the delightful work of Madame the Countess Martinengo-Cesaresco, that I became aware of the vastness and the beauty and fascination of the study to which that charming lady introduced me. It is to a woman that we are indebted for the only compilation of West Indian folk tales; to a woman for several delightful volumes on the ancient charms and the old legends of the Irish; to a woman for our acquaintance with "Myths, Symbols and Magic of the East Africans;" to a woman for the learned and delightful treatise upon "Old Rabbit, the Voodoo,"—in short, it is to women that we are indebted for a very large share of the curious, entertaining and instructive literature, in which all people as intelligent and enterprising as we are delight.
It is largely owing to the perseverance, and patience, and discretion of a woman that there exists and flourishes in Chicago to-day a Folk-Lore Society, and but for the fear of offending the solemnity of this occasion, I should call for three cheers for Mrs. Helen W. Bassett.
