　　：In Darkness

　　Must all of worth be travailled for, and those

　　Life's brightest stars rise from a troubled sea?

　　Must years go by in sad uncertainty

　　Leaving us doubting whose the conquering blows,

　　Are we or Fate the victors? Time which shows

　　All inner meanings will reveal, but we

　　Shall never know the upshot. Ours to be

　　Wasted with longing, shattered in the throes,

　　The agonies of splendid dreams, which day

　　Dims from our vision, but each night brings back;

　　We strive to hold their grandeur, and essay

　　To be the thing we dream. Sudden we lack

　　The flash of insight, life grows drear and gray,

　　And hour follows hour, nerveless, slack.

　　：Hero-Worship

　　A face seen passing in a crowded street,

　　A voice heard singing music, large and free;

　　And from that moment life is changed, and we

　　Become of more heroic temper, meet

　　To freely ask and give, a man complete

　　Radiant because of faith, we dare to be

　　What Nature meant us. Brave idolatry

　　Which can conceive a hero! No deceit,

　　No knowledge taught by unrelenting years,

　　Can quench this fierce, untamable desire.

　　We know that what we long for once achieved

　　Will cease to satisfy. Be still our fears;

　　If what we worship fail us, still the fire

　　Burns on, and it is much to have believed.

　　：To an Early Daffodil

　　Thou yellow trumpeter of laggard Spring!

　　Thou herald of rich Summer's myriad flowers!

　　The climbing sun with new recovered powers

　　Does warm thee into being, through the ring

　　Of rich, brown earth he woos thee, makes thee fling

　　Thy green shoots up, inheriting the dowers

　　Of bending sky and sudden, sweeping showers,

　　Till ripe and blossoming thou art a thing

　　To make all nature glad, thou art so gay;

　　To fill the lonely with a joy untold;

　　Nodding at every gust of wind to-day,

　　To-morrow jewelled with raindrops. Always bold

　　To stand erect, full in the dazzling play

　　Of April's sun, for thou hast caught his gold.
