Song     and   joy  and   starry  pleasures    Crown    the  happy    smiling    hours�此� 

Slowly�察�heavily�察�and sadly�察�Time with weary wings must flee�察�Marked by 

pain�察�and toil�察�and sorrow�察�Where I fain would be� �

    Where I am�察�the great and noble Tell me of renown and fame�察�And the 

red wine sparkles highest�察�To do honour to my name�此� Far away a place is 

vacant�察�By a humble hearth�察�for me�察�Dying embers dimly show it�察�Where I 

fain would be� �

    Where I am�察�are glorious dreaminess�察�Science�察�genius�察�art divine�察�And 

the great minds whom all honour Interchange their thoughts with mine�此� A 

few simple hearts are waiting�察�Longing�察�wearying�察�for me�察�Far away where 

tears are falling�察�Where I fain would be� �

    Where I am�察�all think me happy�察�For so well I play my part�察�None can 

guess�察�who smile around me�察�How far distant is my heart ´ Far away�察�in a 

poor cottage�察�Listening to the dreary sea�察�Where the treasures of my life 

are�察�Where I fain would be� �

                       VERSE�此                   �WISHES 



     All   the  fluttering   wishes   Caged     within   thy   heart  Beat   their  wings 

against    it�察 �Longing    to  depart�察  �Till  they  shake    their  prison   With   their 

wounded cry�察�Open wide thy heart to´day�察�And let the captives fly。 

     Let them first fly upward Through the starry air�察�Till you almost lose 

them�察  �For   their   home   is   there�察  �Then�察  �with   outspread   pinions�察  �Circling 

round and round�察�Wing their way�察�wherever Want and woe are found。 

     Where     the  weary    stitcher  Toils   for  daily   bread�察  �Where    the  lonely 

watcher Watches by her dead�察�Where with thin weak fingers�察�Toiling at the 

loom�察�Stand the little children�察�Blighted ere they bloom。 

     Where�察  �by   darkness     blinded�察  �Groping     for   the  light�察  �With  distorted 

conscience      Men    do  wrong     for  right�察 �Where�察   �in  the  cold   shadow�察   �By 

smooth pleasure thrown�察�Human hearts by hundreds Harden into stone。 

     Where on dusty highways�察�With faint heart and slow�察�Cursing the glad 

sunlight�察�Hungry outcasts go�此�Where all mirth is silenced�察�And the hearth 

is chill�察�For one place is empty�察�And one voice is still。 

     Some hearts will be lighter While your captives roam For their tender 

singing�察�Then recal them home�察�When the sunny hours Into night depart�察�

Softly they will nestle In a quiet heart。 



                                                                                       111

      VERSE�此                  �THE PEACE OF GOD 



    We ask for Peace�察�oh Lord� �Thy children ask Thy Peace�察�Not what the 

world calls rest�察�That toil and care should cease�察�That through bright sunny 

hours   Calm   Life   should   fleet   away�察  �And   tranquil   night   should   fade   In 

smiling day�察 � It is not for such Peace that we would pray。 

    We ask for Peace�察�oh Lord� �Yet not to stand secure�察�Girt round with 

iron Pride�察�Contented to endure�此�Crushing the gentle strings That human 

hearts should know�察�Untouched by others' joy Or others' woe�察 � Thou�察�oh 

dear Lord�察�wilt never teach us so。 

    We ask Thy Peace�察�oh Lord� �Through storm�察�and fear�察�and strife�察�To 

light and guide us on�察�Through a long struggling life�此�While no success or 

gain Shall cheer the desperate fight�察�Or nerve�察�what the world calls�察�Our 

wasted might�此� Yet pressing through the darkness to the light。 

    It is Thine own�察�oh Lord�察�Who toil while others sleep�察�Who sow with 

loving care What other hands shall reap�此�They lean on Thee entranced�察�In 

calm and perfect rest�此�Give us that Peace�察�oh Lord�察�Divine and blest�察�Thou 

keepest for those hearts who love Thee best。

       VERSE�此                   �LIFE IN DEATH AND 

                        DEATH IN LIFE 



                                              I。 



     If   the   dread   day   that   calls   thee   hence�察  �Through   a   red   mist   of   fear 

should loom�察。�Closing in deadliest night and gloom Long hours of aching 

dumb suspense�撮� And leave me to my lonely doom。 

     I   think�察  �beloved�察  �I   could   see   In   thy  dear   eyes   the   loving   light   Glaze 

into vacancy and night�察�And still say�察 �God is good to me�察�And all that He 

decrees is right。; 

     That�察   �watching     thy  slow    struggling    breath�察  �And    answering     each 

imperfect sign�察�I still could pray thy prayer and mine�察�And tell thee�察�dear�察�

though this was death�察�That God was love�察�and love divine。 

     Could hold thee in my arms�察�and lay Upon my heart thy weary head�察�

And   meet   thy   last   smile   ere   it   fled�察  �Then   hear�察  �as   in   a   dream�察  �one   say�察�

;Now all is over��she is dead。; 

     Could smooth thy garments with fond care�察�And cross thy hands upon 

thy breast�察�And kiss   thine eyelids down   to rest�察�And yet   say no word of 

despair�察�But�察�through my sobbing�察 �It is best。; 

     Could stifle down the gnawing pain�察�And say�察 �We still divide our life�察�

She has the rest�察�and I the strife�察�And mine the loss�察�and hers the gain�此�My 

ill with bliss for her is rife。; 

     Then turn�察�and the old duties take ´ Alone nowyet with earnest will 

Gathering sweet sacred traces still To help me on�察�and�察�for thy sake�察�My 

heart and life and soul to fill。 

     I think I could check vain weak tears�察�And toil��although the world's 

great space Held nothing but one vacant place�察�And see the dark and weary 

years Lit only by a vanished grace。 

     And sometimes�察�when the day was o'er�察�Call up the tender past again�此�

Its painful   joy�察�its   happy pain�察�And live it over yet   once more�察�And  say�察�



                                                                                       113

;But few more years remain。; 

     And then�察�when I had striven my best�察�And all around would smiling 

say�察 �See how Time makes all grief decay�察─�Would lie down thankfully to 

rest�察�And seek thee in eternal day。 



                                              II。 



     But if the day should ever rise ´ It could not and it cannot be ´ Yet�察�if 

the sun should ever see�察�Looking upon us from his skies�察�A day that took 

thy heart from me�察�

     If loving thee still more and more�察�And still so willing to be blind�察�I 

should the bitter knowledge find�察�That Time had eaten out the core Of love�察�

and left the empty rind�察�

     If   the   poor   lifeless   words�察  �at   last�察  。�The   soul   gone�察  �that   was   once   so 

sweet�撮� Should cease my eager heart to cheat�察�And crumble back into the 

past�察�And show the whole a vain deceit�察�

     If I   should   see   thee turn   away�察�And   know that   prayer�察  �and   time�察  �and 

pain�察�Could no more thy lost love regain�察�Than bid the hours of dying day 

Gleam in their mid´day noon again�察�

     If I should loose thy hand�察�and know That henceforth we must dwell 

apart�察�Since I had seen thy love depart�察�And only count the hours flow By 

the dull throbbing of my heart�察�

     If I should gaze and gaze in vain Into thine eyes so deep and clear�察�And 

read the truth of all my fear Half mixed with pity for my pain�察�And sorrow 

for the vanished year�察�

     If   not   to   grieve   thee   overmuch�察  �I   strove   to   counterfeit   disdain�察 �And 

weave me a new life again�察�Which thy life could not mar�察�or touch�察�And so 

smile down my bitter pain�察�

     The ghost of my dead Past would rise And mock me�察�and I could not 

dare Look to a future of despair�察�Or even to the eternal skies�察�For I should 

still be
