Appleton.
TO ONE WHO LOVED NOT POETRY.
Thou liest dead, and there wiU be no memory left behind Of thee or thine in all the earth, for never didst thou bind The roses of Pierian streams upon thy brow ; thy doom Is now to flit with unknown ghosts in cold and nameless gloom.
Edwin Arnold.
120 EARLT LYRIC AND ELEGIAC.
THE MOON.
The stars about the lovely moon Fade back and vanish very soon, When, round and full, her silver face Swims into sight, and lights all space.
Arnold.
DEATH.
To die must need...s be sad, the gods do know it ; For were death sweet, they 'd die, and straightway show it.
Arnold.
SONG OF THE ROSE.
If Zeus chose us a King of the flowers in his mirth, He would call to the rose, and would royally crown it ; For the rose, ho, the rose ! is the grace of the earth.
Is the light of the plants that are growing upon it!
For the rose, ho, the rose ! is the eye of the flowers.
Is the blush of the meadows that feel themselves fair, Is the lightning of beauty that strikes through the bowers On pale lovers that sit in the glow unaware.
