By chasing cares so clouded over,
Heart of mine?
Holding what no storm can unfix

Save this, alas! that once it seemed I thought

With your faces pinched and blue;

To cheer us when the storm shall drift
Our harvest-fields with snow.

If now in beaded rows drops deck the spray,
While _Phoebus_ grants a momentary ray,
Let but a cloud's broad shadow intervene,
And stiffen'd into gems the drops are seen;
And down the furrow'd oak's broad southern side
Streams of dissolving rime no longer glide.

Worthy of flowers and syrups sweet,
O fountain of Bandusian onyx,
Tomorrow shall a goatling's bleat
Mix with the sizz of thy carbonics.

All was ended now, the hope, and the fear, and the sorrow,
All the aching of heart, the restless, unsatisfied longing,
All the dull, deep pain, and constant anguish of patience!

Meekly she bowed her own, and murmured, "Father, I thank thee!"
The Gray Brother

The Pope he was saying the high, high mass,
All on Saint Peter's day,
With the power, to him given, by the saints of heaven,
To wash men's sins away.

Now, if thou wouldst inherit righteousness,
And so sanctification possess

I am sure I 'll be jailed for a lunatic yet.
