And her beauty far away Would fade, as her voice ran on, Till hazel and summer sun And all were gone: All fordone and forgot; And like clouds in the height of the sky, Our hearts stood still in the hush Of an age gone by. THE SLEEPER As Ann came in one summer's day, She felt that she must creep, So silent was the clear cool house, It seemed a house of sleep. And sure, when she pushed open the door, Rapt in the stillness there, Her mother sat, with stooping head, Asleep upon a chair;Fast--fast a...sleep; her two hands laid Loose-folded on her knee, So that her small unconscious face Looked half unreal to be:So calmly lit with sleep's pale light Each feature was; so fairHer forehead--every trouble was Smoothed out beneath her hair. But though her mind in dream now moved, Still seemed her gaze to rest--From out beneath her fast-sealed lids, Above her moving breast--On Ann; as quite, quite still she stood; Yet slumber lay so deepEven her hands upon her lap Seemed saturate with sleep. And as Ann peeped, a cloudlike dread Stole over her, and then, On stealthy, mouselike feet she trod, And tiptoed out again.
