THE POETS MISSION.


THE POETS MISSION.
A Poet must ere long arise,
And with q regal song sun-crown this age,
One, who shall hall0w Poetry 10 God
And to It's own high use, for Poetry Is
The grandest chariot wherein king-thoughts ride;-
One, who shall fervent grasp the sword OF sons'
As stern swordsman grasps his keehest oiaoe,
To find the quickest passage to the heart.
A mighty Poet whom this age shall choose
To be its spokesman to all coming tunes.
In the ripe, ull-blown season OF MS sou,
He shall 90 forward In his SPIRITS strength,
And grapple with the questions OF all tme,
And wiring from them their meanings AS KING saul
Called I'D the buried prophet from MS grave
To sneak his doom, shall this Poet-king
Call up the dead Past from It's awful grave
To tell him Of our future. As the air
moth sphere the world, so shall his heart OF love-
Ior,nr mankind, not peoples. As the lake
Reaecis the flower, tree, rock and bending heaven
Shall he reflect our great humanity;
And as the Young Spring breathes with living breath
On a dead branch, till II sprouts frasrantiy
Sreen leaves and sunny flowers, shall he breathe life
Through every theme he touch, making all Beauty
And Poetry for ever like the stars.
