The minstrels heart was daintily strung,
= And empeafled' lil|l ahell - the.seasss :
Sweet rang the chords he sWeptSas he
sung.
In the pride Of his ninstrelsy.
And amid the strings Of the harp some
where.
Just where could never be told:
For all were gilded TO see and fair;
There nestled one stri1g Of gold.
And whatever tones the poet brought
From the wires he walked from sleeping.
Into the music all unsought
A thrilling sound came creeping;
For high above the pulsing beat,
The surge Of the song and the shiver,
With a sound more clear and note more
sweet
The golden string would quiver.
And souls peered out from their prison
bars
As the worldlings stopped to listen
And thought Of something beyond the
stars.
And duh eyes gan 20 glisten.
And those whose grief had ehoked them
broke
Al the sound Of the harp into sobbing;
For In every heart an echo woke
From the gold string and its throbbing.
And mortals thought that one sweet note
Had slipDed through the great pearl
portal
Down the dim depths Of space aaoat
10 earth from the choir immortal.
But the fountain drops plash with a
liquid chime
Gu the brook which flows 20 the sea,
And we are but drops ia the stream Of
Time
A. i sweeps 70 Eternity.
SO there came a dawn Ia the early spring.
When never a song remains unsung.
When birds swing lightest on the wing
And the gray world again feels young.
The meadow sparkled with morning dew,
rwittered the birds in their wildwood
bower.
They rnsiled their little throats and grew
Half mad with JOY of the passing hour.
The nightingale piped his '9Jtiest lay
Nov was the time for a tune or never.
The sweet song rose and died away,
But the minstrels harp WAS stilled for,
ever.
The breeze. an wanton. swept the strings.
But they echoed back no token.
And the mourners sobbed as the sun went
down.
For the golden string lay broken.
