Musine long, asked mo this,
"Chrysalis,
Living helpless in my path,
Obvious TO mortal scath,
From a careless passer-by,
What thy life may signify 7
Why from Hope and JOY apart
Thus thou art Z
Surely Nature did amiss,
Chrysahs,
When she lavished fins and wings
Nerved with incest moving springs,
On the mote and madrepore,
Wherewithal to swim or soar,
And dispensed so niggardly
Unto thee.
Even the very worm may KISS,
Chrysalis,
Roses on their topmost stems,
Blazoned with their dewy gems,
And may rock him TO and ire,
AS the 2ephyrs softly blow,
While thou Hest dark and cold,
On the mold.
Quoth the chrysalis: "Sir Bard,
Not so hard,
Is my rounded destiny
In the great Economy.
Nay, by humble reason viewed,
There is much for gratitude,
In the shaping and upshot
OF my lot.
Though l seem of all things born
Most forlorn,
Most obtuse of soul and sense,
Next Of kin TO Impotence,
Nay, to Death himself; yet ne'er
Priest or prophet, sage or seer,
May sublimer wisdom teach,
Than preach.
From my pulpit of the sod,
Like a god,

Nearest glory's natal porch,
Where with pale inverted torch,
Death lights downward to the rest

And tomorrow shall be
Bright and beautiful as she,
And sweep forth on wings of light,

Bide the day,
When thy latent wings shall be
Plumed for Immortality,
And with transports marvellous,
Cleave their dark sarcophagus,
