What answering smile lights your alluring eyes?
Madness leers at me, as my thoughts recall The love that late between us cried, — and cries ! . . .
Well, go ! My mirth goes with you, who might be A lamp of earth, a bright star from the sea.
[34] PORTRAIT-PAINTER XXVII Over profoundest deeps, light lacy foam Plays where the sun-world frontiers meet the sea's.
And in the deeps, slow gulf-tides have their home, Nor is the foam-crest utterant of these.
Sail the bright surface on a Summer's day, And... you shall dream along each smiling crest.
Making the waves companions of your play, Blind to the glooms within the ocean's breast.
But when grey weather muffles up the blue, And thundering voices rise from hollow deeps, And coldly drooping wraith-mist out of view Inviolate the ancient mystery keeps, — Then would you know the secret ocean-world.
Then dive ! — a plummet through vast shadows hurled.
[35] SONNETS OF A XXVIII You are not peace, you are not happiness; I look not on you with content or trust; Nor is there in you aught with power to bless Or heal my spirit weary of life's dust.
