Methinks, O friend, I hear thee say, "In vain the human heart we mock;Bring living guests who love the day, Not ghosts who fly at crow of cock!The herbs we share with flesh and bloodAre better than ambrosial foodWith laurelled shades. " I grant it, nothing loath, But doubly blest is he who can partake of both.
XIV. He who might Plato's banquet grace, Have I not seen before me sit, And watched his puritanic face, With more than Eastern wisdom lit?Shrewd mystic! who, upon the backOf his Poor Rich...ard's Almanac, Writing the Sufi's song, the Gentoo's dream, Links Manu's age of thought to Fulton's age of steam!
XV. Here too, of answering love secure, Have I not welcomed to my hearthThe gentle pilgrim troubadour, Whose songs have girdled half the earth;Whose pages, like the magic matWhereon the Eastern lover sat, Have borne me over Rhine-land's purple vines, And Nubia's tawny sands, and Phrygia's mountain pines!
XVI. And he, who to the lettered wealthOf ages adds the lore unpriced, The wisdom and the moral health, The ethics of the school of Christ;The statesman to his holy trust, As the Athenian archon, just, Struck down, exiled like him for truth alone, Has he not graced my home with beauty all his own?
