With change as bless'd as ever came with passage of a nightl Ah 1 could our hearts but share The promise rich and rare, That welcomes life to rapture in each happy fond caress, 15 330 W-*-fl POETRY OF TBS SOUTH.
That makes each innocent thing^ Put on its bloom and wing, Singing for Spring to come to the realm she still would bless !
But, alas for us, no more Shall the coming hour restore The glory, sweet and wonted, of the seasons to our souls ; Even as the Spring appears, Her smiling makes our... tears.
While with each bitter memory the torrent o'er us rolls.
Even as our zephyrs sing That they bring us in the Spring, Even as our bird grows musical in ecstasy of flight — ■ We see the serpent crawl.
With his slimy coat o'er all.
And blended with the song is the hissing of his blight.
We shudder at the blooms, Which but serve to cover tombs — At the very sweet of odors which blend venom with the breath ; Sad shapes look out from trees, And in sky and earth and breeze.
We behold but the aspect of a Horror worse than Death !
