" SONNETS 141 Perchance we first time really see a flower ! Some inward grandeur — un suspect — makes cry ! Or others' nobleness enchains our view ! In such informing and exalting hour Earth's old futilities pass downcast by, And life on sudden takes eternal hue. THE NAMELESS RECORD In Rome a chiseled marble told a tale Of noble deeds and high unselfish life — Though from the tablet hammer-blows and knife Had all obliterated, as with hail, * The great one's name !
