Farewell, the last, and may God be with thee. But au revoir, ah no ! for who can tell ?
11 TO H. R. L. WITH OMAR KHAYYAM'S RUBAIYAT.
Upon the ag^d forehead of the world, Which time has scored with hnes of pain and grief, England has laid a fragrant crown of song That shines with deathless bloom and ageless leaf. The glowing blossoms fade not as the swift Days wither and are gone, and the sweet scent Grows never fainter— nay, but some would seem The richer by each year's emolument. Lo, one of th...ese I send you, that waved first On the rose-trellises of Naishapur, But in these latter days has bloomed again And charmed us with its old-world Persian lure. Let these quatrains, transplanted from the East, And woven in the wreath of English song. Be for a sign of peace 'twixt you and me, And as you love them, be the peace so long.
12 SERENADE.
You are leaning from your window, Drinking deep of starlit air, You have loosened from its trammels The rich wonder of your hair. And your arms upon the window-sill are gleaming white and bare.
