Fair was the crown to behold, and beauty its poorest part — At once the scar of the wound and the order pinned on the heart. The beauties of man are frail, and the silver lies in the dust, And the queen that we call to mind sleeps with the brave and the just; Sleeps with the weary at length ; but honoured and ever fair, Shines in the eye of the mind the crown of the silver hair. Honolulu. 237 XXXIII TO MY WIFE (/i Fragment) LONG must elapse ere you behold again -/ Green forest frame the entry o...f the lane — The wild lane with the bramble and the briar, The year-old cart-tracks perfect in the mire, The wayside smoke, perchance, the dwarfish huts, And ramblers' donkey drinking from the ruts: — Long ere you trace how deviously it leads. Back from man's chimneys and the bleating meads To the woodland shadow, to the silvan hush. When but the brooklet chuckles in the brush — Back from the sun and bustle of the vale To where the great voice of the nightingale Fills all the forest like a single room.
