61 Kyrielle.
NAY, not for me the toil and strife Of 'Change, of war, of public life Than go with Fame, I'd rather stay With books, and pipe and dear Edmee.
A little garden ? . . . Well, perchance, If weedless flowers, self-raising plants Would grow therein, where I might stray With books, and pipe and dear Edmee.
Horses and dogs ? . . . Yes, I'd not mind Were I but ever sure to find An hour of peace, at close of day With books, and pipe and dear Edmee.
Travel ? . . . Of course ! The Frank might
... stare, The Russian rave, the Turk despair ; I none the less would them survey With books, and pipe and dear Edmee.
62 But homeward-longing ever, I Still for our low-built house would sign, Where I might peaceful be for aye With books, and pipe and dear Edmee.
