almost hear the organ Peal alone the arches dim。 

    As I watched the wreathed pillars�察�Groves of stately palms arose�察�And 

a group of swarthy Indians Stealing on some sleeping foes。 

     Stay�察  �a   cataract   glancing   brightly�察  �Dashed   and   sparkled�察  �and   beside 

Lay a broken marble monster�察�Mouth and eyes were staring wide。 

     Then I saw a maiden wreathing Starry flowers in garlands sweet�察�Did 

she see the fiery serpent That was wrapped about her feet�拭�

     That   fell   crashing   all   and   vanished�察�And   I   saw   two   armies   close   ´   I 

could almost hear the clarions�察�And the shouting of the foes。 

     They   were   gone�察  �and   lo�   �bright   angels�察  �On   a   barren   mountain   wild�察�

Raised appealing arms to Heaven�察�Bearing up a little child。 

    And   I   gazed�察  �and   gazed�察  �and   slowly  Gathered   in   my   eyes   sad   tears�察�

And the fiery pictures bore me Back through distant dreams of years。 

     Once again I tasted sorrow�察�With past joy was once more gay�察�Till the 

shade had gathered round me ´ And the fire had died away。 



                                                                                     119

              VERSE�此                   �THE SETTLERS 



     Two stranger youths in the Far West�察�Beneath the ancient forest trees�察�

Pausing�察  �amid   their   toil   to   rest�察  �Spake   of   their   home   beyond   the   seas�察�

Spake of the hearts that beat so warmly�察�Of the hearts they loved so well。 

In   their   chilly  northern   country。   ;Would�察─  �they  cried�察  �some   voice   could 

tell   Where    they   are�察 �our   own    beloved    ones� ─   �They   looked    up   to  the 

evening sky Half hidden by the giant branches�察�But heard no angel´voice 

reply。 All silent was the quiet evening�察�Silent were the ancient trees�察�They 

only heard the murmuring song Of the summer breeze�察�That gently played 

among   The   acacia   trees。   And   did   no   warning   spirit   answer�察  �Amid   the 

silence all around�察 �Before the lowly village altar She thou lovest may be 

found�察�Thou�察�who trustest still so blindly�察�Know she stands a smiling bride� �

Forgetting thee�察�she turneth kindly To the stranger at her side。 Yes�察�this day 

thou art forgotten�察�Forgotten�察�too�察�thy last farewell�察�All the vows that she 

has spoken�察�And   thy  heart has   kept   so   well。   Dream  no   more   of   a   starry 

future�察�In thy home beyond the seas� ─�But he only heard the gentle sigh Of 

the summer breeze�察�So softly passing by The acacia trees。 

     And vainly�察�too�察�the other�察�looking Smiling up through hopeful tears�察�

Asked in his heart of hearts�察 �Where is she�察�She I love these many years�拭─�

He   heard   no   echo   calling   faintly�此   �Lo�察  �she   lieth   cold   and   pale�察�And   her 

smile so calm and saintly Heeds not grieving sob or wail ´ Heeds not the 

lilies strewn upon her�察�Pure as she is�察�and as white�察�Or the solemn chanting 

voices�察�Or the taper's ghastly light。; But silent still was the ancient forest�察�

Silent   were   the   gloomy   trees�察  �He   only   heard   the   wailing   sound   Of   the 

summer breeze�察�That sadly played around The acacia trees 



                                                                                         120

                           VERSE�此                   �HUSH 



     ;I can scarcely hear�察─�she murmured�察 �For my heart beats loud and fast�察�

But surely�察�in the far�察�far distance�察�I can hear a sound at last。; ;It is only 

the   reapers   singing�察�As   they   carry   home   their   sheaves�察�And   the   evening 

breeze has risen�察�And rustles the dying leaves。; 

     ;Listen� �there are voices talking。; Calmly still she strove to speak�察�Yet 

her voice grew faint and trembling�察�And the red flushed in her cheek。 ;It is 

only the children playing Below�察�now their work is done�察�And they laugh 

that their eyes are dazzled By the rays of the setting sun。; 

     Fainter   grew   her   voice�察  �and   weaker As   with   anxious   eyes   she   cried�察�

;Down the avenue of chestnuts�察�I can hear a horseman ride。; ;It was only 

the deer that were feeding In a herd on the clover grass�察�They were startled�察�

and fled to the thicket�察�As they saw the reapers pass。; 

     Now the night arose in silence�察�Birds lay in their leafy nest�察�And the 

deer couched in the forest�察�And the children were at rest�此�There was only a 

sound   of   weeping   From   watchers   around   a   bed�察  �But   Rest   to   the   weary 

spirit�察�Peace to the quiet Dead� �



                                                                                        121

                         VERSE�此                   �HOURS 



     When   the   bright   stars   came   out   last   night�察 �And   the   dew   lay   on   the 

flowers�察�I had a vision of delight ´ A dream of by´gone hours。 

     Those   hours   that   came   and   fled   so   fast�察  �Of   pleasure   or   of   pain�察 �As 

phantoms rose from out the past Before my eyes again。 

     With beating heart did I behold A train of joyous hours�察�Lit with the 

radiant light of old�察�And�察�smiling�察�crowned with flowers。               And some were 

hours   of   childish   sorrow�察  �A   mimicry   of   pain�察  �That   through   their   tears 

looked for a morrow They knew must smile again。 

     Those hours of hope that longed for life�察�And wished their part begun�察�

And ere the summons to the strife�察�Dreamed that the field was won。 

     I   knew   the   echo   of   their   voice�察  �The   starry   crowns   they   wore�察  �The 

vision made my soul rejoice With the old thrill of yore。 

     I knew the perfume of their flowers�察�The glorious shining rays Around 

these happy smiling hours Were lit in by´gone days。 

     Oh stay�察�I   criedbright visions�察�stay�察�And leave me   not forlorn�   �But�察�

smiling still�察�they passed away�察�Like shadows of the morn。 

     One spirit still remained�察�and cried�察 �Thy soul shall ne'er forget� ─�He 

standeth ever by my side ´ The phantom called Regret� �

     But   still   the   spirits   rose�察  �and   there   Were   weary   hours   of   pain�察  �And 

anxious hours of fear and care Bound by an iron chain。 

     Dim shadows came of lonely hours�察�That shunned the light of day�察�And 

in the opening smile of flowers Saw only quick decay。 

     Calm hours that sought the starry skies For heavenly lore were there�察�

With folded hands and earnest eyes�察�I knew the hours of prayer。 

     Stern   hours   that   darkened   the   sun's   light�察  �Heralds   of   coming   woes�察�

With trailing wings�察�before my sight From the dim past arose。 

     As   each dark   vision   passed   and   spoke   I prayed   it   to   depart�此�At   each 

some buried sorrow woke And stirred within my heart。 

     Until   these   hours   of   pain   and   care   Lifted   their   tearful   eyes�察  �Spread 

their dark pinions in the air And passed into the skies。 



                                                                                         122

     ;The clouds are fleeting by�察�father�察�Look in the shining west�察�The great 

white   clouds   sail   onward   Upon   the   sky's   blue   breast。   Look   at   a   snowy 

eagle�察  �His   wings   are   tinged   with   red�察�And   a   giant   dolphin   follows   him�察�

With a crown upon his head� ─�

     The father spake no word�察�but watched The drifting clouds roll by�察�He 

traced   a   misty   vision   too   Upon   the   shining   sky�此�A  shadowy   form�察  �with 

well´known   grace   Of   weary  love   and   care�察�Above   the   smiling   child   she 

held�察�Shook down her floating hair。
