On the churches wall THE PAINTER. 187 There huDg one lovely portrait, and for hours Would Guido, in the fulness of hb heart, Kneel, watching till he wept. The subject was A dying Magdalene. Her long black hair Spread round her like a shroud, one pale thin hand Pillowed a cheek as thin and pale, and scarce The blue light of the eyes was visible For the death dampness on ...the darkened lids ; — As one more eflfort to look on the cross. Which seemed just falling from the fainting arm, And they would close for ever. In that look There was a painter's immortality.
