THE FIRE OF DRIFT-WOOD. DEVEREUX FARM, MARBLEHEAD. WE sat within the farm-house old. Whose windows, looking o'er the bay, Gave to the sea-breeze, damp and cold, An easy entrance, night and day. Not far away we saw the port, The strange, old-fashioned, silent town, The lighthouse, the dismantled fort. The wooden houses, quaint and brown. TIIK FIRE OF DRIFTIVOOD, 73 We sat and talked until the night, Descending, filled the little room, Our faces faded from the sight. Our voices only broke the glo...om. We spake of many a vanished scene, Of what we once had thought and said, Of what had been, and might have been, And who was changed and who was dead ; And all that fills the hearts of friends, When first they feel with secret pain, Their lives henceforth have separate ends. And never can be one again ; The first slight swerving of the heart, That words are powerless to express. And leave it still unsaid in part, Or say it in too great excess. The very tones in which we spake Had something strange, I could but mark ; The leaves of memory seemed to make A mournful rustling in the dark.
