POETRY.
william Cullen Bryant.
BY ATLANTA.

Irnon the wide shore, washed of trackless waters,
whereon the feet of all that live are set
The singer stood, and his young eyes were shining,
OF its salt spray and bitter still unwet;
He sang to ships, that drifted to and fro,
of sun and storm, and way that they should go.
Traveller untried, he knew the journeys ending,
With dimless surety of the poets sight,
As from the morning sun, unveiled, is given
To night-time's shade moon made full of light,
So sweet youths joys that with the years increase
Were as prelude played to latter peace.
Strong life that sought shelter from the struggle
Foot set to foot and face to face with men,
Made true his words with work of hands unfalllng,
And to fair dreams gave form and place again.
The garnered treasure OF his many days
Is as shcaf of wisdom, bound with praise.
All, needless are all garlands that we weave him;
What worth have any words, for is not he
Praised of mems hearts, crowned of the years in
passing,
As with the flowers of the almond tree
of DAYS that were and days to be, made blest
With gifts of hope and memory and rest!
Late wears and fair, bit of the coming wonder
OF light that eyes know not, are his to-day
Before him be long space of years aud honored,
Fulfilled of joy as time of this world may;
About him let all things move calm as sleep,
Or the slow-lapping waves that fold the deep.
