POETRY.
Old st. David's at Radnor.
BY HENRY W. LONGFELLoW.


What an image of peace and rest
Is this little church among its grayes
All is so qniet: the troubled breast,
The wounded spirit, the heart oppressed,
Here may find the repose it Graves.
See how the ivy climbs and expands
Over this humble hermitage.
And seems to caress with its little hands
The rough, gray stones, as child that stands
Caressing the wrinkled cheeks OF age
You cross the threshold, and dim and small
Is the space that serves for the Shepherds fold:
The narrow aisle, the bare white wall,
The pews and the pulpit quaint and TALL
Whisper and say, "Alas! we are old'
Herbert's chapel at Bemerton
Hardly more spacious is than this,
But Poet and Pastor, blent in one
Clothed with splendor, as of the sun,
That lowly and hollow edifce.
1t is not the wall of stone without
That makes the building small great
But the souls light shining round about,
And the faith that overcometh doubt,
And the love that stronger is than hate.
Were l pilgrim in search of peace,
Were l pastor of Holy church
More than bishops diocese
Should prize this place of rest and release
From further longing and further search.
Here would STAY and let the world
With its distant thunder roar and roll:
Storms do not rend the sail that is furled,
Nor like dead leaf, tossed and whirled
In an eddy of wind, is the anchored soul.
