Chicago, November jo, 1878.
II Waiting WAITING She waiteth far beyond my sight, The soul that's meant for me ; I see her face Is gentlest grace, And sheds around a tender light, But more I cannot see.
She came erewhile to bless my dream. And whispered I must wait ; But then I woke Just as she spoke ; I turned to catch the vision's gleam, But then it was too late.
And now in sleep she comes again To let me mark her face, But lingers far, Like Fortune's star, Beyond the circle of my pain She will... some time displace. 12 Waiting Nor eye nor ear nor any sense Of mine hath found her out ; And yet those eyes, O, how I prize ! Discovered by a faith intense, Will bring the time about.
She dwelleth somewhere in the light Of a most homelike heaven, Nor any love Save that above, Which she believes for all is right, To her was ever given.
She waiteth, yet 'tis I who wait, She liveth only free ; Nor may I seem Part of her dream; And yet some time or soon or late She'll come and speak to me.
Some time she'll come to lift my head As once she seemed in sleep, And bid me rise And see those eyes, 13 Waiting Not fading when the word is said, My treasure e'er to keep.
