A Dardan youth there was, well known to fame,
From Panthus sprung, Euphorbus was his name;

in the course:
Full twenty knights he tumbled from the car,
While yet he learn'd his rudiments of war.

Rise, resty Muse, my love's sweet face survey,
If Time have any wrinkle graven there;
If any, be a satire to decay,
And make time's spoils
despised
every where.

Whenever you shall come again,
Be you as dull as e'er you could
(And by the bye 'tis understood,
You're not so pleasant as you're good),
Yet, knowing well your worth and place,
I'll welcome you with
cheerful
face;
And though you stay'd a week or more,
Were ten times duller than before;
Yet with kind heart, and right good will,
I'll sit and listen to you still;
Nor should you go away, dear Rain!

Till Laura, dwindling,
Seemed
knocking
at Death's door:
Then Lizzie weighed no more
Better and worse,
But put a silver penny in her purse,
Kissed Laura, crossed the heath with clumps of furze
At twilight, halted by the brook;
And for the first time in her life
Began to listen and look.

I know the grass
Must grow
somewhere
along this Thracian coast, If only he would come some little while and find

INCANTATION
When the leaves, by thousands thinned,
A thousand times have whirled in the wind,
And the moon, with hollow cheek,
Staring from her hollow height,
Consolation seems to seek
From the dim, reechoing night;
And the fog-streaks dead and white
Lie like ghosts of lost delight
O'er highest earth and lowest sky;
Then, Autumn, work thy
witchery!

and then
We'll riot, man; for then, at last
"`We'll make with heaven a
contract
fair
To call, each hour, from town to town,
And carry the dead folks' souls up there,
And bring the unborn babies down!
