THE KINGS PICTURE.
BY HELEN BARRON BosTwIcK.


There is in every human being, however
noble, some hint of perfection; some
lie place, where las we may fancy the
Ill is thin which hides the divinity behind
Classics.
The king from his council. chamber
Game weary and sore of heart;
lie called for lift the painter,
And spess to him thus apart
81 am sickened of faces ignoble,
Hypocrites, towards, and knaves
shall shrink to their shrunken measure,
Chief slave in a realm of slaves
II.
"Paint me true mans picture,
Gracious, and wise, and good,
lowered with the strength of heroes,
And the beauty of womanhood.
1t shall hang in my inmost chamber,
That, thither when retire,
1t may fill my soul with its grandeur,
And warm 1t with sacred fire . .
III.
So the artist painted the picture,
And it hung in the palace hall;
Never thing so goodly
Had garnished the stately wall .fs
The king with head uncovered
Gazed on it with rapt delight
Till it suddenly wore strange meaning
And bafiled his questioning sight
w.
For the form was his Simplest courtier's,
Perfect in every limb;
But the bearing was that Of the henchman
Who filled the flagons for him.
The brow was a priests who pondered
His parchments early and late;
The eye was a wandering minstrel's
Who sang at the palace gate.
V.
The lips, half sad and half mirthful,
With fitting, tremulous grace, Ists.
Were the very lips of a woman
He had kissed in the marlset.place;
Bat the smile that their curves TRANSPORTED
AS rose with its simmer of dew,
Was the smile of the wife who loved him,
Queen Ethelyu, good and true.
vi.
Then, Learn, o king said the artist,
This truth that the picture tells
How, in every form of the human,
Some hint of the Highest dweils
How, scanning each living temple
For the place where the veil is thin,
We may gather, by beautiful glimpses,
The form of the god Within"
