And fearful in its feudal frown.
When I saw what ailed thee, heart.
Wherefore should I stop, and start ? — That old helm, with that old crest, Is more to me than all the rest ; Battered, broken, though it be.
That old helm is all to me.
Yon black greyhound know I well ; Many a tale hath it to tell, How, in troublous times of old, Sires of mine, with bearing bold.
Bearing bold, but much mischance, Swayed the sword or poised the lance.
Much mischance, desponding still, They fought and fell, foreb...oding ill ; HERALDIC. 49 And their scallop, gules with blood, Fessed amid the azure flood.
Showed the pilgrim, slain afar Over the sea in Holy War ; While that faithful greyhound black Vainly watched the wild boar's track, And the legend and the name Proved all lost but hope and fame, — Tout est perdu, fors I'honneur, Mais " VEspoir est ma forced'' sans peur.
(50) THE TRUE EPICURE.
How saidst thou ? Pleasure ? Why, my life is pleasure ; My days are pleasantness, my nights are peace ; I drink of joys which neither cloy nor cease — A well that gushes blessings without measure ; Ah !
