Sleep, let me sleep, for I am sick of care;
Sleep, let me sleep, for my pain wearies me.
Shut out the light; thicken the heavy air
With drowsy incense; let a distant stream

The Nile like flowing fire between,
Where Rameses stares forth serene,

William Wordsworth
The Scholars
"Oh, show me how a rose can shut and be a bud again!"

And entered them at the landward schools as though no war had been.

And the cloudy days of autumn and of winter cometh on
I tried to call them back but unbidden they are gone
Far away from heart and eye and for ever far away

A youth, who bore, 'mid snow and ice,
A banner with the strange device-

Love - The Symbolic Soul
Love is a journey, only few dispatch it,
Not all can, the dream in life who loves,
Although millions of promises created.
It's fragile like a narrow glass, easily smart,

Thine emulous fond flowers are dead, too,

That frightened thee so oft, is fled or dead:
Save only me

Easing the car-trays on to the quay. Release her!

Had ta'en his last leave of the weeping morn,
Rose-cheeked Adonis hied him to the chase;
Hunting he loved, but love he laughed to scorn.

Somehow it makes me think of Spring
As in my grate it over-spills
With dancing flames like daffodils.

A feeling strange or new;
Thou hast but roused a latent thought,
A cloud-closed beam of sunshine, brought

MIDST OF A SNOW COVERED FIELD,

outside the sugar-house one night for choice,
I called the fireman with a careful voice
And bade him leave the pan and stoke the arch:
