A Meditation Of St. Eligius
Eligius said, "Tis fabled ill: / The hands that all the world control, / Had here been room for miracle,
A Memorial Of Africa
I. / Upon a rock, high on a mountain side, / Thousands of feet above the lake-sea's lip,
A Mood
My thoughts are like fire-flies, pulsing in moonlight; / My heart like a silver cup, filled with red wine; / My soul a pale gleaming horizon, whence soon light
A Noonday Melody
Everything goes to its rest; / The hills are asleep in the noon; / And life is as still in its nest
A Prayer
Thou who mad'st the mighty clock / Of the great world go; / Mad'st its pendulum swing and rock,
A Prayer For The Past
; / Where gorgeous sunsets claim the scope / Of gazing heaven to spread their show,
