To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They conjure back the happy past, the days, When on my youthful ways Love shed her golden light, and sang most true. Her wondrous, olden tale, for ever new.
133 They speak of friends wlioml shall see no more, Of tongues that will be silent till I die, Of parted hands, that, from death's quiet shore, Tenderly beckon as I wander by.
Some thought of God, from His celestial place, As in a mirror, dwells on every face ; Every leaf that woos the air Seems to lift its hand in prayer.
For ever pointing... to the summer sky ; The green-robed, glorious trees, serene and calm, The wind that wakes their silence with a psalm, — Flow'rs, light, shade, sunshine, clouds, and skies above, — These are my teachers, — these the friends I love.
134 MEMORY.
^^HE soiil may wander in a region fair, ''^ That is more fair than bright, A country that is neither here nor there, Whose bounds are boundless, stretching every- where : It hath a tender light, A world of sorrowful beauty, and an air Of home ; it giveth to the raptur'd eight Things that have faded, forms that were most dear: Therein sweet voices fall upon the ear, Long silent in death's night : It hath the blooming fields, the water'd glades, The old church pathway through the woodland shades, 135 The once familiar houses, the green ways We throng'd, as children, singing happy lays To brooks that answer'd with a low sweet song, Throughout those ancient summers calm and long.
