BY HENRY VAUGHAN.
" Happy those early days, when I Shin'd in mine angel infancy ! Before I understood this place Appointed for my second race, Or taught my soul to fancy aught But a white, celestial thought When yet I had not walked above A mile or two from my first love, And looking back, at that short space, Could see a glimpse of his bright face When on some gilded cloud or flower, My gazing soul would dwell an hour, And in those weaker glories spy Some shadows of eternity : Before I taught
...my tongue to wound My conscience with a sinful sound : Or had the black art to dispense A several sin to every sense, But felt through all this fleshy dress Bright shoots of everlastingness. O how I long to travel back, And tread again that ancient track ! That I might once more reach that plain Where first I left my glorious train ! From whence the enlightened spirit sees That shady city of palm trees. But ah ! my soul with too much stay Is drunk, and staggers in the way. Some men a forward motion love, But I by backward steps would move ; And when this dust falls to the urn, In that state I came, return.
