SEEMING DEFEAT.

BY the soft pathos of some passing bird,
Is not the same as it was before.

Has held its fragile chalice to the shower
Is different fOrevePmore..
Unheard unseen,
A spell has been!
o thou that breathest year by year
Music that falls unheeded on the ear
Take heart, fate has not baffied theei
Thou that with tints of earth and skies
Fullest thy canvas for unseeing eyes,
Thou hast not labored futiely.
Unheard unseen,
A spell has been,

integrity of the Chinese empire upheld there will not be

people other than themselves, will be affected which
