Thus, in the hours of twilight oft I find Phantoms that whisper in the passing wind, — Ghosts from the twilit land of Memory. [52] <&. *^ ft i » AN IVORY CASKET Night spreads her wings over the wearied day And folds the earth's warm meadows in her arms And presses starry kisses on the brow Of furrowed Ocean, and the old world sleeps, Quiet and happy as a little child. Then in the silent hours I open up A casket chiseled from smooth ivory And filled with fragments of old memories; Colorless petals of a withered rose — Verses and letters yellow from Time's hands; I lose myself among these trifling things Until against the window-pane white Dawn Shall press her face and summon me away. [53] m A SACRIFICE And it was only yesterday We parted, you and I, dear friend? The meadows sang along the way, The flowers marshalled their array Along the warm sweet, dust-white road; And then we parted, friend from friend Parted, we felt it was the end. Yet dared not tell each other so. And sorrow, the Great Shepherd's goad That drives men over life's strange ways, Wounded my heart, I turned, and low Your words were, dreamy, far-away, "Good-bye" — your hand in mine, and then You vanished in the long dark train — You went to suffering and pain, A sacrifice for lesser men — I tarried by the lonely way — Friend, was this only yesterday?
