TO
G.
The thoughtless link with thine my name And prate as witless gossips will, On the one theme which seems to fill The measure of life's paltry game. But I, who having learned in tear* A deeper mystery, having known The grief that haunteth when alone Have bound up wisdom with my years. And so I know your worth, and know I am not worthy to engage In your dear serwee, growin or page, Or aught that you might deign bestow. I only worship fiom afar, Like devout watchers of the skie<? What time there swims before their eyes A now and most resplendent star.
