Great lady of the darkening skies,
Great lady OF the lustrous eyes,
Stay stay, your hasty tread,
And lowly bend your golden head.
All! hush that rendih< moan
Far wandering that turns to stone.
And lead, my loves and every thought
And all the visions I have brought;
All, hush that bodeful sound!
Is it OF sky or hollow ground?
That we together In good faitn
May talk of the great god Death.
In charnel-house OF lNtle breath
Prisoners both are we to death.
And over all the freezing earth
Is not sign of ancient mirth.
Here 'mong the ashes of the year,
In dregs of life, sorrow and no tear,
Memory on our minds doth lie
So intricate the old forget TO die.
Great spirit of many moods,
Art thou god or devil or these woods!
Sonetimes a specter vast and gray
Somber, blottinR out the light OF day,
And then lishtsome fairy here ana
there,
Making mock of groveling' despair;
And then being OF such gracious
semblance,
As turns to tears the anguish OF re-
membrance,
All. enchantress weaving spells.
what Is it that thy riddle tells7
When sunset reddens the lofty trees,
And the birds are singing high 1uo!eee.
And creeping night the woods doth
p,p down in my heart I wait and
And in my heart is nausht meath the
archdne sky
sayo . reedy. trexnulous, timerous cry
Hopes candle lights mans trembling
No morc. There is no more to say.
ssve That the sick mans latest sigh.
Blows out that candle standing nigh.
Aln0 for freedom, and oh, our frailty!
Re Illusion mine and away reality.
wbsn past rs the surges thunderous
roar,
And ve rist TO the far recmrent lapse.
OF tho ebbing tide On the desolate
shore.
Comes, sweet as hope, tho wcrd-per-
IN an the creeds and ie1.ccns of .or-
sn.. sweet with hope. the wurd-to-
morrow.
