William Henry Giles Kingston Deep Poems

  • 1.
    I heard the trailing garments of the Night
    Sweep through her marble halls!
    I saw her sable skirts all fringed with light
    From the celestial walls!
    ...
  • 2.
    With what a glory comes and goes the year!
    The buds of spring, those beautiful harbingers
    Of sunny skies and cloudless times, enjoy
    Life's newness, and earth's garnitude spread out
    ...

    There is a quiet spirit in these woods,
    That dwells where'er the gentle south wind blows;
    Where, underneath the whitethorn, in the glade,
    The wild flowers bloom, or, kissing the soft air,

    And the voices of the Night
    Wake the better soul, that slumbered,
    To a holy, calm delight;

    Some legend strange and vague,
    That a midnight host of spectres pale
    Beleaguered the walls of Prague.

Vain Hope
 by Ernest Dowson

Sometimes, to solace my sad heart, I say,
Though late it be, though lily-time be past,
Though all the summer skies be overcast,
