Show Love Triumphant. Helen's lips aro drifting dust; lllon Is consumed with rust; All tho galleons of Greeco Drink the ocean's dreamless peace; L.ost was Solomon's puiplo show ltestless centuries ago; Stately empires wax and wano Babylon, Uarbary. and Spain-Only Spain-Only ono thing, undrfaced, Lasts, though ill! the worlds lie wast And the heavens are overturned, Dear, how long ago we learned! There's a sight that blinds the sun, Sound thnt lives when sounds are done, Music that rebukes tho birds, Languago lovelier than words, Huo and scent that slmmo tho rose, Wlno no earthly lneynrd knows, SHenco stlllor than tho shore Swept by Charon's stealthy oar, Ocean moro dlvlnoly free Than Pttclllo'H bouiiUloss sea Ye. who lovo havo learn d It true. Dear, how long ago wo know! ' Fredoilc U Knowles. |
