5^ IRISH POEMS THE LEPER Not white and shining like an ardent flame, Not like Thy Mother and the Saints in bliss, But white from head to foot I bear my blame, White as the leper is.
Unclean ! unclean ! But Thou canst make me clean ; Yet it Thou cleanse me, Lord, see that I be Like that one grateiul leper of the ten Who ran back praising Thee.
But if I must forget, take back Thy word ; Be I unclean again but not ingrate. Before I shall forget Thee, keep me, Lord, A sick man at Thy gate.
COMPENSA...TION 57 COMPENSATION To Mr. Justice Ross 'Twas worth the years of exile just to recapture The old delight, the wild bliss of coming back.
I can praise God that I have tasted the rapture Before the night darkened upon my track.
Nigh on twenty years in a foreign city, And the best hour that hour in fog and rain, Going home, end my heart singing its ditty In time to the creaking screw and the throbbing train.
Oh, the yellow streets and the poor sad people Trudging to their task in a pallid gloom Below the black house-walls, under spire and steeple, And I for the sun at last and going home !
