Wind and steam and speed And clamor and the night. We are in Ghent.
On Leaving a Citv.
The city's steeple-towers remove away Each singly; as each vain infatuate faith Leaves God in heaven and passes. A mere breath Each soon appears, so far. Yet that which lay The first is now scarce further or more grey Than is the last. Now all are wholly gone.
The sunless sky has not once had the sun Since the first weak beginning of the day.
The air falls back as the wind finishes, And the clouds stagnate; o...n the water's face The current moves along but is not stirr'd.
There is no branch that thrills with any bird.
Lo, Winter must possess the earth a space.
And have his will upon the extreme seas.
Ashore at Dover.
On landing, the first voice one hears is from An English police-constable; a man Respectful, con.'^cious that at need he can Enforce respect. Our custom-house at home Strict too, but quiet. Not the foul-mouthed scum Of passport mongers who in Paris still Preserve the Reign of Terror; not the till Where the King haggles, all through Belgium.
