     Fear   not�察  �my   child�   �Though   the   waves   are   white   and   high�察�And   the 

storm blows wild Through the gloomy sky�察�On the edge of the western sea�察�

See that line of golden light�察�Is the haven bright Where home is awaiting 

thee�察�Where�察�this peril past�察�We shall rest from our stormy voyage In peace 

at last。 

     Be   not   afraid�察  �But   give   me   thy   hand�察  �and   see   How   the   waves   have 

made A  cradle   for   thee。   Night   is   come�察  �dear�察  �and   we   shall   rest�察  �So   turn 

from the angry skies�察�And close thine eyes�察�And lay thy head on my breast�此�

Child�察�do not weep�察�In the calm�察�cold�察�purple depths There we shall sleep。 



                                                                                             125

              VERSE�此                   �UNEXPRESSED 



     Dwells   within   the   soul   of   every  Artist   More   than   all   his   effort   can 

express�察�And   he  knows the best   remains   unuttered�察�Sighing   at   what WE 

call his success。 

     Vainly he may strive�察�he dare not tell us All the sacred mysteries of the 

skies�此  �Vainly   he   may   strive�察  �the   deepest   beauty   Cannot   be   unveiled   to 

mortal eyes。 

     And the more devoutly that he listens�察�And the holier message that is 

sent�察�Still the more his soul must struggle vainly�察�Bowed beneath a noble 

discontent。 

     No   great   Thinker   ever   lived   and   taught   you All   the   wonder   that   his 

soul received�察�No true Painter ever set on canvas All the glorious vision he 

conceived。 

     No    Musician      ever   held   your   spirit   Charmed      and   bound     in  his 

melodious   chains�察  �But   be   sure   he   heard�察  �and   strove   to   render�察  �Feeble 

echoes of celestial strains。 

     No real Poet ever wove in numbers All his dream�察�but the diviner part�察�

Hidden from all the world�察�spake to him only In the voiceless silence of 

his heart。 

     So with Love�此      �for Love and Art united Are twin mysteries�察�different�察�

yet the same�此�Poor indeed would be the love of any Who could find its full 

and perfect name。 

     Love may strive�察�but vain is the endeavour All its boundless riches to 

enfold�察  �Still   its   tenderest�察 �truest   secret lingers   Ever in   its   deepest   depths 

untold。 

     Things of Time have voices�此          �speak and perish。 Art and Love speak 

but their words must be Like sighings of illimitable forests�察�And waves of 

an unfathomable sea。 



                                                                                        126

                     VERSE�此                   �BECAUSE 



     It is not because your heart is minemine only ´ Mine alone�察�It is not 

because you chose me�察�weak and lonely�察�For your own�察�Not because the 

earth   is   fairer�察  �and   the skies   Spread   above   you Are   more   radiant   for   the 

shining of your eyes ´ That I love you� �

     It   is   not   because   the   world's   perplexed   meaning   Grows   more   clear�察�

And the Parapets of Heaven�察�with angels leaning�察�Seem  more near�察�And 

Nature sings of praise with all her voices Since yours spoke�察�Since within 

my silent heart�察�that now rejoices�察�Love awoke� �

     Nay�察  �not   even   because   your   hand   holds   heart   and   life�察�At   your   will 

Soothing�察�hushing   all its   discord�察�making   strife Calm  and still�察�Teaching 

Trust to fold her wings�察�nor ever roam From her nest�察�Teaching Love that 

her securest�察�safest home Must be Rest。 

     But because this human Love�察�though true and sweet ´ Yours and mine 

´ Has been sent by Love more tender�察�more complete�察�More divine�察�That it 

leads our hearts to rest at last in Heaven�察�Far above you�察�Do I take you as a 

gift that God has given ´ ´ And I love you� �

         VERSE�此                  �REST AT EVENING 



    When the weariness of Life is ended�察�And the task of our long day is 

done�察�And   the   props�察  �on   which   our   hearts   depended�察�All   have   failed   or 

broken�察�one by one�察�Evening and our Sorrow's shadow blended Telling us 

that peace is now begun。 

    How far back will seem the sun's first dawning�察�And those early mists 

so   cold   and   grey�   �Half   forgotten   even   the   toil   of  morning�察�And the   heat 

and burthen of the day�此�Flowers that we were tending�察�and weeds scorning�察�

All alike withered and cast away。 

    Vain will seem  the impatient heart�察 �which waited Toils that gathered 

but too quickly round�察�And the childish joy�察�so soon elated At the path we 

thought none else had found�察�And the foolish ardour�察�soon abated By the 

storm which cast us to the ground。 

    Vain those   pauses on   the   road�察  �each seeming As   our   final home   and 

resting´place�察�And the leaving them�察�while tears were streaming Of eternal 

sorrow down our face�察�And the hands we held�察�fond folly dreaming That 

no future could their touch efface。 

    All will then be faded�此� night will borrow Stars of light to crown our 

perfect   rest�察�And   the   dim   vague   memory   of   faint   sorrow   Just   remain   to 

show us all was best�察�Then melt into a divine to´morrow�此� Oh�察�how poor a 

day to be so blest� �

     From this fair point of present bliss�察�Where we together stand�察�Let me 

look   back   once   more�察  �and   trace   That   long   and   desert   land�察  �Wherein   till 

now was cast my lot�察�and I could live�察�and thou wert not。 

     Strange   that   my   heart   could   beat�察  �and   know Alternate   joy   and   pain�察�

That suns could roll from east to west�察�And clouds could pass in rain�察�And 

the slow hours without thee fleet�察�nor stay their noiseless silver feet。 

     What had I then�拭�a hope�察�that grew Each hour more bright and dear�察�

The   flush   upon   the   eastern   skies   That   showed   the   sun   was   near�此�   Now 

night has faded far away�察�my sun has risen�察�and it is day。 

     A  dim  Ideal of   tender grace   In   my  soul   reigned   supreme�察�Too   noble 

and too sweet I thought To live�察�save in a dream ´ Within thy heart to´day 

it lies�察�and looks on me from thy dear eyes。 

     Some   gentle   spiritLove   I   thought   ´   Built   many   a   shrine   of   pain�察�

Though each false Idol fell to dust�察�The worship was not vain�察�But a faint 

radiant shadow cast back from our Love upon the Past。 

     And Grief�察�too�察�held her vigil there�察�With unrelenting sway Breaking 

my cloudy visions down�察�Throwing my flowers away�此� I owe to her fond 

care alone that I may now be all thine own。 

     Fair Joy was thereher fluttering wings At times she strove to raise�察�

Watching   through   long   and   patient   nights�察  �Listening   long   eager   days�此  �I 

know now that her heart and mine were waiting�察�Love�察�to welcome thine。 

     Thus I can read thy name throughout�察�And�察�now her task is done�察�Can 

see that even that faded Past Was thine�察�beloved one�察�And so rejoice my 

Life may be all consecrated�察�dear�察�to thee。

     So you think you love me�察�do you�拭�Well�察�it may be so�察�But there are 

many ways of loving I have learnt to know。 Many ways�察�and but one true 

way�察�Which is very rare�察�And the counterfeits look brightest�察�Though they 

will not wear。 

     Yet they ring�察�almost�察�quite truly�察�Last ��with care�� for long�察�But in time 

must   break�察  �may   shiver At   a   touch   of   wrong�此  �Having   seen   what   looked 

most    real  Crumble     into   dust�察 �Now    I  chose   that  test  and   trial  Should 

precede my trust。 

     I have seen a love demanding Time and hope and tears�察�Chaining all 

the past�察�exacting Bonds from future years�察�Mind and heart�察�and joy and 

sorrow�察�Claiming as its fee�此�That was Love of Self�察�and never�察�Never Love 

of me� �

     I have seen a love forgetting All above�察�beyond�察�Linking every dream 

and fancy In a sweeter bond�察�Counting every hour worthless�察�Which was 

cold or free�此� That�察�perhaps�察�wasLove of Pleasure�察�But not Love of me� �

     I have seen a love whose patience Never turned aside�察�Full of tender�察�

fond   devices�察  �Constant�察  �even   when   tried�察  �Smallest   boons   were   held   as 

victories�察�Drops that swelled the sea�此�That I think wasLove of Power�察�But 

not Love of me� �

     I have seen a love disdaining Ease and pride and fame�察�Burning even 

its   own   white   pinions   Just   to   feed   its   flame�察  �Reigning   thus�察  �supreme�察�

triumphant�察�By the soul's decree�察�That wasLove of Love�察�I fancy�察�But not

the self´same look�察�but always Has an inner life。 Only a true heart can find 

it�察�True   as   it is   true�察  �Only  eyes   as   clear   and   tender   Look   it   through   and
