Two Rhymes (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from Two Rhymes

And somehow, cometh a picture of bliss Of gardens and blossoming fields in a breath Cometh out from the kingdom of dreams Mellowed and hallowed by memory's beams, And towers and Spires and walls of stone.

Excerpt from Two Rhymes

The First Parish Vane

Over the city hangs a mist,
And the smell of the sea brings a thought of storm;
About the chimneys the smoke wreaths twist,
And under the eaves the pigeons swarm;
East, north-east, like the finger of doom,
Steadily pointing into the gloom,
On the First Parish spire is plainly seen
The vane which a century there hath been.
