BREATH OF THE ROSE.

“4) REATH of the Rose, fp Caught by the Alchemist’s Art, I bid thee disclose The love that is rife in the heart. Go, find a place Mid her papers and letters and things; To each give a trace Of that marvelous fragrance that brings Past Junes to the mind, Though over us falls winter’s night And drear is the wind. Then, if she think, read or write, To her sense thou shalt steal, Not like a thought that intrudes, But make her to feel The presence of Love that illudes Time’s dark, ruthless blight, And o’er space and through Change, even Death, Sends its soft light And sweet dews, tender warmth, with a Breath.

A SUMMER DUSK.

UT of the dark and bosky woods, () The sweet winds blow ; By ferny fen the fire-flies glow, Flicker and glow; From a shadowy pine a bird calls low, Clear and low. Oh, dear is the night when the sweet winds blow, And the fire-flies glow, And a bird from the pine calls clear and low, Sweet, and clear, and low.

DREAMS OF A FAR-AWAY WORLD.

REAMS of a far-away world, Gl Echoes of songs unsung; Memory mingled with prophecy

Of days that are not begun;

Vague as a breath in the dark, | Real as the beat of my heart,

Are these things with me unceasingly, Of my very being a part.

Since somewhere in space beyond ken, In the past that beginning had none, Each hath been each though the soul found home In ether or heart of stone;

And, Dear, when I know thee so well, With a knowledge by long eons taught,

A whisper will wake the far consciousness Of the first that my spirit caught,

Ne, again shall I try, Dearheart, To make thee think I am good or wise;

Never by art or guile, Dearheart, To seem the fairer in thine eyes.

I have been far since we met, Dearheart, Was it yestere’en or ages ago?

I have been in the still, vast spaces That only the soul and God can know.

Oh, thine every touch is dear, Beloved! Never before have I loved thee so; But not by a hair can I hold thee, Sweetheart, Thyself, alone, must stay or go.

Henceforth we must shun all seeming, Dearheart, Live in the truth that makes us free, For when one has been alone, with God, One only longs #o be.

SING, MY HEART.

S's. my heart, a merry song. The fallen leaves are whirled along,

The south wind pushes the clouds

between And sobs in the pine trees’ somber green,

And some way the tears to my eyes will

start, So sing a merry song, my heart.

Sing a merry song, my heart,

Of joys that stay though joys depart; Thou dost know the rollicking tune

Of drunken bobolinks in June.

What though flown the gladsome throng? Sing, my heart, their merry song.

Sing, my heart, a merry song.

If Hope grows faint, yet Love is strong. Thou dost know Love’s every tone, And Love will some day reach its own Though time and space hold far apart, Then sing a merry song, my heart.

Over my head is a sky of blue, Blue to the far horizon’s rim; And the sun shines bright the long day through, Till it slips past the mountains, blue and dim.

But aye in my heart there is longing and pain For the wild wet winds and the sweet warm rain; For the rosy bloom a-bursting through The bare, brown boughs that the white snows knew.

IN AUGUST.

“GQ.N the early afternoon, j Not a bird was singing, To the measure of the wind

A heavy rose was swinging.

There came a drowsy bumble-bee, His droning made it seem more still ; | It lulled me to hypnotic sleep; I followed him o’er vale and hill.

I smelled the fields of clover bloom, Where graceful elms their feathers shook; I paused beneath the fir and pine, Then sought the sea by thread of brook.

But when I woke the sun was low, Strange trees were traced against its

blaze; In place of blue Atlantic waves,

*T were Western hilis that met my gaze.

The promise of the summer’s bloom.

If any be who wrought thee ill,

THE FIELDS OF ARCADY.

H, the sun is up and the skies are fair, Oh, ho, for the fields of Arcady! The air is sweet beyond compare ‘In the blossoming fields of Arcady.

And all the flowers, they say, are wet With dew from Heaven, in Arcady; Press to the lip, one may forget All grief in the joys of Arcady.

The path is through a winding way, To the happy fields of Arcady, Where sunbeams dance and shadows play With the breeze that fans sweet Arcady.

The gate with broken hasp stands wide, There are no bars to Arcady.

The tall trees beckon either side Inticing us to Arcady.

MOUNT HAMILTON.

We journeyed up the mountain way:

{J AST wooded slope, round steep

Below us, flushed with orchard bloom, Green-walled, the fertile valley lay.

We stood at last beneath the dome That crowns the summit; bleak and bare, Save where scant soil, in creviced rock, Brings forth a blossom, frail and fair.

We had a glance through magic glass That grave men seek with eager eyes, Searching the long and silent nights To learn the secrets of the skies

Then, Sweet, mine eyes turned toward the East— I saw a sky of cloudless blue, But never glass had power to show One glimpse of my far land,—or you.

THE EUCALYPTUS TREES.

HEY rise up into the morning of mist, Vast and dreamlike and far away, Pulsing with rose and amethyst And shot with gold from the sun’s first ray; And they bear me into an upper air Above Earth’s sordidness and care.

But afternoons when the dry winds blow,

And make one shiver with cold, —or heat, And the sky overhead is blue, blue, blue! And endlessly long seems the dust- white street, And the mountain sides are seared and scarred, Their darksome shadows press too hard.

Stately and still they majestically stand Against the luminous dusk of the sky, Catching the last faint gleam of the sun,

Holding moon and star in their branches high, And with the magic of night set free, They bring far heaven nearer me.

But afternoons when the dry winds blow, And make one shiver with heat, —or cold, And the sky overhead is blue, blue, blue! And the line of the mountain hard and bold, And the world seems suddenly big and drear, Their darksome shadows crowd too near.

A MOMENT AT THE OPEN DOOR.

H, but the world is fair! The russet branches there,

And yellow, dangling leaves, Now caught by a glint of gold From the sun that weaves A path where the clouds are rolled And tossed and spread Across the blue o’rehead.

And see how the shadows play O’er the blue hills far away! Was ever a sweeter note

Thrust into air, rain-clear,

Than this from the yellow throat Of meadow lark hovering near? And the throb of my heart doth

neither belie, The smile on my lip nor the tear in

mine eye.

IN THE FIELDS AND IN THE ORCHARDS.

4 N the fields and in the orchards Many flowers fair are blooming, Snowy plum and golden poppy All the summer air perfuming; But a pain is in my heart And I fear it’s nigh to breaking, With longing for the picture that the snowy sails are making, As they’re passing to and fro, As they passed long, long ago, Now in shade and now in sunlight Where the sweet salt breezes blow: Yet the flowers this sunny weather Biow their petals all together; Of their bloom small heed I’m taking,

For my heart is nigh to breaking, And the tears have blurred my sight.

But a pain is in my heart, And I fear it’s nigh to breaking, With longing for the music that the ocean waves are making, As they beat upon the shore, As they beat in days of yore, And the cry of drifting sea-bird And the plash of passing oar. Yet the birds this sunny weather Wake and sing and fly together— I scarce heed their flight or waking, For my heart is nigh to breaking, And with tears my sight is blurred.

FAITH GOES A-SAILING.

re goes a-Sailing, a-sailing, a-sailing, Faith goes a-sailing into the blue. Hope looks over the waiting water To rifted cloud where the sun shines

Love delves down in the dusty dark, Humming a tune once learned from a star, Seeing through trouble, sin and sorrow The Light of Truth shine from

A WIND.

r HE sailors that wait in the harbor

o’re night, Tell of strange things that befall at sea,

Of the phantom ships and the false watch-lights, | Of the terrible monsters they fight nt Shee.

Their yarns are long, their tales are wide; Some claim what the other man says is untrue, And each likes best to hear his own voice Tell what he has seen or what he would do.

But they all agree ’bout a curious wind, That sometime or other strikes every ship ; And none may guess when, where it _ will blow, _ Which vessel ’twill take or which it | will skip.

One told of a fleet that was all becalmed, The limp sails mirrored in sky-like sea, Of the restless stillness that held them

fast, While time as eternity seemed to be,

When this strange wind blew, from whence none knew, And seized two ships from all the rest, And carried one to its port in the East, And wrecked the other on rocks in the

West.

One told of a transport, crowded, thronged,

With soldiers fierce for the thick of the fight: They studied the chart for the shortest route, They tested the engines’ power and might.

But vain their purpose and chart and steam ;

Their visions of glory had all to surcease,

For the strange wind bore them out of their course

And landed them all at the Isle of Peace.

Another told of a humble craft, —And little enough could the skipper boast But a cheery heart and a ready hand, As he fished and traded along the coast,

And the strange wind filled the brown, patched sails, And instead of a cargo of fish and fur, It returned from a port not down on the map, And laden with frankincense and myrrh.

Oh, the sailors that wait in the harbor o’er night, — Will quarrel for slight and ridiculous cause, As about the rig of a phantom ship, Or if the sea-serpent has wings or claws;

There may be blows ‘bout the mermaid’s song, But concerning this wind they unite as the sod, Though some call it the Wind of Destiny, And some say it’s only the Breath of God.

THE THINGS O’ AIR.

—in all the world there is no such strong tower as this wherein I am confined; and 1s neither of wood, nor of tron, nor of stone, but of air and not anything else.’”-—Morte d’ Arthur.

5 broke the bonds that held me——

And the wee, sma’ things o’ air, That fastened them close around me, They gathered from everywhere!

I laughed as I heard my fetters fail, I stood, one moment, strong and free.

Then I heard the sma’ things to each other call,

And they laughed and they mocked at me.

They brought their forges out of the dark; Lighted their fires right under my nose! I thought my breath would put out the spark That glowed where the blue smoke slowly rose.

‘ i

*

But it only fanned it into a flame, Slender and red like a serpent’s tongue, That leaped and straight to my eyes it came, And under the lids it burned and stung.

I was blind with the pain and the hot, quick tears; I could not see whither to turn or flee— The sledge and the hammer they rang in my ears, While the sma’ things worked right merrily.

And wrought they well, with might and main, Each broken link they made full strong, And bound them around me once again, To wear the rest of my whole life long.

And now through the weary days I go; A slave to the wee, sma’ things o’ air! And if I cry out, they joy to know I find their fetters so hard to bear.

I learned to smile as the years crept by, Though the cords cut into my aching breast: I learned to stifle the groan and sigh, And still the ragings of fierce unrest.

But oh! the bitterness and the shame, To know myself for so mean a thing, A slave! Tho’ none whispered the hateful name, And my chains were covered with tinseling.

Then came in the solemn hush of night, The Spirit of Truth, and revealed to me, That my chains were fashioned of endless might, Reaching through Time and Eternity:

And though the cords hurt me, again and again, I would not, now, if I could be free, For they bind my heart to my fellow-men, —And bind my fellow-men to me.

At Last.

I thought myself bound by biting chain, I thought myself driven by ruthless rod. But now I know that what I felt Were the sinews of strength of God.

YEA, Lord, Thy will be done. I know all will be well,

Yet why such sorrow comes to one, Why pain should be, I cannot tell, I need not understand. I only know For purpose, holy and divine, In Thy great plan, come grief and woe. Yea, Lord, Thy will,—not mine.
