Whittier, in acknowledgment of the tribute
paid him by his friends on his SEVENTEEN
birthday
RESPONSE.
Beside the milestone where the level Gun,
Nigh unto setting, sheds his last, low rays
On word and work irrev0cably done,
Lies blending threads Of good and Ill outspun,
hear, 0 friends your words Of cheer and praise,
Hall doubtful if myself or otherwise,
Like him who in the old Arabian joke.
beggar slept and crowned Caliph woke,
Thanks not the less With not unglad surprised
see my lite work through your partial eyes;
Assured, in giving TO my home-taught songs
higher value than of right belongs,
You do but read between the written lines
The finer grace of unfafled designs.
