I shall not see the morning sky; I shall not hear the night-wind sigh; I shall be mute, as all men must In after days! But yet, now living, fain were I That some one then should testify, Saying — "He held his pen in trust To Art, not serving shame or lust.
6 psl. - The ladies of St. James's Wear satin on their backs; They sit all night at Ombre, With candles all of wax: But Phyllida, my Phyllida! She dons her russet gown, And runs to gather May dew Before the world is down.
98 psl. - IND thy pasteboard, on thy battered hack, Thy lean cheek striped with plaster to and fro, Thy long spear levelled at the unseen foe, And doubtful Sancho trudging at thy back, Thou wert a figure strange enough, good lack ! To make Wiseacredom, both high and low, Rub purblind eyes, and (having watched thee go) Dispatch its...

Then we drop from the heights atmospheric To Herrick, Or we pour the Greek honey, grown blander, Of Landor ; Or our cosiest nook in the shade is Where Praed is, Or we toss the light bells of the mocker With Locker.

12 psl. - As she knits in her dusky stall. There's a letter to drop at the locksmith's shop, And Toto, the locksmith's niece, Has jubilant hopes, for the Cure gropes In his tails for a pain d'epice.
83 psl. - IN our hearts is the GREAT ONE of Avon Engraven, And we climb the cold summits once built on By MILTON. But at times not the air that is rarest Is fairest, And we long in the valley to follow Apollo.
12 psl. - And a bow for Ma'am'selle Anne ; And a mock " off-hat " to the Notary's cat, And a nod to the Sacristan : — For ever through life the Cure goes With a smile on his kind old face — With his coat worn bare, and his straggling hair And his green umbrella-case.
39 psl. - Her laugh is like a tune ; — With a hey, Dolly ! ho, Dolly ! Dolly shall be mine, Before the spray is white with May; Or blooms the eglantine.
87 psl. - I am a part of all the past ; I knew the GEORGES, first and last ; I have been oft where else was none Save the great wig of ADDISON ; And seen on shelves beneath me grope The little eager form of POPE. I lost the Third that own'd me when French NOAILLES fled at Dettingen ; The year JAMES WOLFE surpris'd...
