Presently they called him "laggard, " Said he " shirked his share of toil, " Said he was " a thriftless scholar, And had better till the soil. " Laughed to scorn his learned phrases, Called him " milk-sop " to his face. But he bore it like a martyr, Patiently, with Christ-like grace. Read to them the old-time story, Record from Egyptian lands, Where a nation rose to power, Through a younger brother s hands. 18 OVER THE HILL TO Then he kissed me, bade God bless me, Laid his books aside with care..., And went out amid the toilers, Working well as any there. Back again, when evening shadows, Fell upon the bars of gold And athwart the purple twilight, Down the veil of darkness rolled. He came blithely ; all the love-light Of his blessed happy heart Making bright my tiny cottage^ For we could not live apart, Came to greet me, clasp me fondly, Show me with a look of pride, The first earnings of his boyhood, Came to place them at my side, THE WHITE HOUSE. 19 All he gave me, speaking softly, " Of the mansion he would own, Where I should be honored mistress, AY here I should not be alone, But should live among the noble, Gifted, great, in all the land.
