" Though earth is rich in gems," he said, " The silent stars look coldly down On faded rose and tarnished crown, On broken faith and fancies dead.
l2 148 MAUD ATHERTON.
If there be aught that can endure The disenchanting touch of Time, It is a spirit-gift sublime, And with diviner beauty pure.
Once o'er a civil battle field, Earth's guardian-angel sadly gazed On dying hands to heaven upraised, On shattered lance and broken shield.
Few sadder sights hath this sad life Than brother by a brother s...lain : Hands parted ne'er to clasp again, Or meeting but in deadly strife.
The pitying angel held her crown Of mystic beauty high in air, With tender thought, and murmured prayer,.
She flung its starry jewels down.
To earth the diamonds were given, That in this wild and weary strife Of pride and passion — men call life — They yet might hold one touch of heaven.
Upon the battle field they fell, And now they bear a crimson stain, Which brings a sudden touch of pain, Or so the old traditions tell.
