SUNSET.

Day like a cOnQucTOr marching to his rest,
The warfare finished and the victory won,
And all the pageant of his triumph done
Seeks his respondent chamber IN the west:

Bearing abroad the banners of the sun
That proudly stream DER many "a warriors crest.
In the azure field solitary star
Lifts it's pale signal, end the glorious train

Reform their gittering ranks and join again
