She sat where on each wind that sigh'd	A
The citron's breath went by	B
While the red gold of eventide	A
Burn'd in th' Italian sky	B
Her bower was one where daylight's close	C
Full oft sweet laughter found	A
As thence the voice of childhood rose	D
To the high vineyards round	A
	-
But still and thoughtful at her knee	E
Her children stood that hour	F
Their bursts of song and dancing glee	E
Hush'd as by words of power	F
With bright fix'd wondering eyes that gaz'd	A
Up to their mother's face	G
With brows thro' parted ringlets rais'd	A
They stood in silent grace	G
	-
While she yet something o'er her look	H
Of mournfulness was spread	A
Forth from a poet's magic book	H
The glorious numbers read	A
The proud undying lay which pour'd	A
Its light on evil years	I
His of the gifted pen and sword	A
The triumph and the tears	J
	-
She read of fair Erminia's flight	A
Which Venice once might hear	K
Sung on her glittering seas at night	A
By many a gondolier	L
Of him she read who broke the charm	M
That wrapt the myrtle grove	N
Of Godfrey's deeds of Tancred's arm	M
That slew his Paynim love	O
	-
Young cheeks around that bright page glow'd	A
Young holy hearts were stirr'd	A
And the meek tears of woman flow'd	A
Fast o'er each burning word	A
And sounds of breeze and fount and leaf	P
Came sweet each pause between	Q
When a strange voice of sudden grief	P
Burst on the gentle scene	Q
	-
The mother turn'd a way worn man	R
In pilgrim garb stood nigh	B
Of stately mien yet wild and wan	S
Of proud yet mournful eye	B
But drops which would not stay for pride	A
From that dark eye gush'd free	E
As pressing his pale brow he cried	A
'Forgotten ev'n by thee	E
	-
'Am I so changed and yet we two	T
Oft hand in hand have play'd	A
This brow hath been all bath'd in dew	T
From wreaths which thou hast made	A
We have knelt down and said one prayer	U
And sung one vesper strain	V
My soul is dim with clouds of care	U
Tell me those words again	W
	-
'Life hath been heavy on my head	A
I come a stricken deer	L
Bearing the heart midst crowds that bled	A
To bleed in stillness here '	-
She gaz'd till thoughts that long had slept	A
Shook all her thrilling frame	X
She fell upon his neck and wept	A
Murmuring her brother's name	X
	-
Her brother's name and who was he	E
The weary one th' unknown	Y
That came the bitter world to flee	E
A stranger to his own	Y
He was the bard of gifts divine	Z
To sway the souls of men	W
He of the song for Salem's shrine	Z
He of the sword and pen	W
