FIVE years ago you cannot choose	A
But know the face of change	B
Though July sleeps and Spring renews	A
The gloss in gorge and range	B
	-
Five years ago I hardly know	C
How they have slipped away	D
Since here we watched at ebb and flow	C
The waters of the Bay	D
	-
And saw with eyes of little faith	E
From cumbered summits fade	F
The rainbow and the rainbow wraith	E
That shadow of a shade	F
	-
For Love and Youth were vext with doubt	G
Like ships on driving seas	H
And in those days the heart gave out	G
Unthankful similes	H
	-
But let it be I ve often said	I
His lot was hardly cast	J
Who never turned a happy head	I
To an unhappy Past	J
	-
Who never turned a face of light	K
To cares beyond recall	L
He only fares in sorer plight	K
Who hath no Past at all	L
	-
So take my faith and let it stand	M
Between us for a sign	N
That five bright years have known the land	M
Since yonder tumbled line	N
	-
Of seacliff took our troubled talk	O
The words at random thrown	P
And Echo lived about this walk	O
Of gap and slimy stone	P
	-
Here first we learned the Love which leaves	H
No lack or loss behind	Q
The dark sweet Love which woos the eves	H
And haunts the morning wind	Q
	-
And roves with runnels in the dell	R
And houses by the wave	S
What time the storm hath struck the fell	R
And Terror fills the cave	S
	-
A Love you know that lives and lies	H
For moments past control	T
And mellows through the Poet s eyes	H
And sweetens in his soul	T
	-
Here first we faced a briny breeze	H
What time the middle gale	U
Went shrilling over whitened seas	H
With flying towers of sail	U
	-
And here we heard the plovers call	L
As shattered pauses came	V
When Heaven showed a fiery wall	L
With sheets of wasted flame	V
	-
Here grebe and gull and heavy glede	Q
Passed eastward far away	D
The while the wind with slackened speed	Q
Drooped with the dying Day	D
	-
And here our friendship like a tree	W
Perennial grew and grew	X
Till you were glad to live for me	W
And I to live for you	X
