And felt his heart sink ceaselessly Down, like the friendless dead at sea.
! for one breath to stir the air, To break the stillness of despair; Welcome alike, though it were given From sulphurous shade, or vales of Heaven !
Now on the darkness swelled a sigh ! The sculptor raised his languid eye, And saw the radiant stranger stand Hiding his sorrow with his hand ; His heart a billowy motion kept, And ever, with its fall and rise, The stillness of the air was swept With a long wave of sighs. The... old man s anxious asking eyes Grew larger with their blank surprise, With wonder why he wept : And while his eyes and wonder grew, Came, with the tears which gushed anew, The music of the stranger s tongue, But broken, like a swollen rill That heaves adown its native hill, Sobbing where late it sung : " Is this the statue fair and white THE SCULPTOR S LAST HOUR. 211 A long laborious life hath wrought, And which our generous Prince hath bought ? Is this (so soulless, soiled, and dull) To pass the golden gates of light And stand among the beautiful?
