And where of Hope the gentle flame StEl gloAvs in every breast , There need Ave not to seek to blame The fresh joy of song contest—And gather ever so sadly above The foggy mist the heart : Oh ! let that heart be fuU of love , And joyful still be Art .
A Sonnet.
A SONNET .
I SING and speak , thou hear st it not ; I Aveep and complain , thou hear ' st it not ; I chaut in the holy fear of night , I chant by day , but thou hear ' st it not . I sing aloud like a thunder-roE In the heavy storm—thou hear ' st it not ;
I sing quite gently , like the kiss of the West On a bank of roses—thou hear ' st it not . And Avhen in my song both lightning and storm I clash together—thou hear ' st it not ; And Avhatever I bear in grief and pain , And in love—thou hear ' st it not .

To which the Persians , kneeling , pray . I look at thee , 0 Queen of the Day , Until gazing , gazing , I blinded stay , Till thou sinkest in the blue sea . Thou passest away , and thou scarce can know Both my bitter strife and my heavy bloAV ;
Without thee no sorroAv , Avithout thee no dream , Without thee no Time , and Avithout thee no gleam , And stiE I remain aU silently . Thou passest aAvay , and I am still no more : I leave the strains to pass as before ; Thou easiest th y beams both bright and bland On another shore—on another land—And I must suffer alone .
A Prahlerei.
A PRAHLEREI .
AND art thou proud 1—then , by my oath , A greater pride is mine If bloomed ten times morn bloomingly That FloAver-yoke of thine ;
