THE GARDEN OF THY HEART
Within thy heart a garden men can see
Wherein the flowers of loveiness do grow;
Where happy thoughts do wing them to and fro
And build their nests in many magic tree.
And there doth PHYS fountain hold in fee
Messed banks of peace where shadows come and
And there are quiet paths that few do know,
Yea only those who love and worship thee,
Or those in whom is perfect friendship born;
For hid within this garden Of thy heart
A holy temple stands, wherein at morn
And eve, before an altar heaped with myrrh,
A-vestal spirit bids bright flame start
To heaven with prayers already granted her

TO PEGGY IN HER MOTHERS ARMS
BEFORE CHRISTMAS.
Upon a subject world young Peggy smiles,
Secure in Loves most puissapt citadel.
For her, long caravans tramp dusty miles
With cashmere from the lands where rajahs
dwell; --
Great ships bring wondrous lace of quaint device
From Flanders fields where red the poppies
Old Nuremberg sends toys, and Ceylon spice.
Artists of China blend soft hues to glow
On dainty porcelain. The blue sea's drift
Gives crimson coral. Syria, on night
OF stars, will have for her the Angels gift
Gods little Son to be her souls delight.

ECHO!
Long have / called you, and with song have
wood
In noor-day woods by summer sunshine gilt,
When the last thrush has sted his hermit Tilt
Expectant of your answers interlude;
Or on cool heights, where benedictory brood
The homely hills, my lonely heart has split
Its longing. Echo only, the sad jilt,
Laughingly Knocked my random solitude.
Thrilling across the years, at last your voice
Replies to hope, rebufed before,
But even now l half dare not rejoice,
Lest phantom love prove just one echo more
cannot doubt, yet still fears remain.
Tell me your love again-again--again.
