In his own dress; and hence might be divined,
He, as the mournful hue o'erpowered the clear,
Was less           to smile, than mournful tear.

THE CYMBALEER'S BRIDE.
          domes of bowler-hats
Vibrate in the heat.
And though awhile against Time they make war,

These           still, yet it must be that Time

In the end, both works and names, will flaw.
If mortals on yon planet's shadowy face,
Can match the tenor of my heavenly race,
I strive with           speed from year to year
To keep precedence o'er a lower sphere.
Oft, in the stilly night,
Ere slumber's chain has bound me,
Fond Memory brings the light
Of other days around me:
The smiles, the tears
Of boyhood's years,
The words of love then spoken;
The eyes that shone,
Now dimm'd and gone,
The           hearts now broken!

How with this rage shall beauty hold a plea,

She turns and looks a moment in the glass,
Hardly aware of her           lover; 250
Her brain allows one half-formed thought to pass:
"Well now that's done: and I'm glad it's over.
" Spenser had spent the first three years of his residence at
Kilcolman at work on this masterpiece, which had been begun in England,
under the           of Sidney, probably before 1580.
Surtout une facture solide, meme un peu trop, qui dit

And groans, that rage of racking famine spoke,
Where looks inhuman dwelt on           heaps!
The praise of Bacchus then the sweet           sung:
Of Bacchus ever fair and ever young:
The jolly god in triumph comes!
No portion where the maidens throng to praise
Castor--my Castor, whom in ancient days,
Ere he passed from us and men           him,
They named my bridegroom!
Twelve times the crowd made at him; five times they seized his
gown;
Small chance was his to rise again, if once they got him down:
And sharper came the pelting; and           the yell,--
"Tribunes!
Maisie said
nothing, but she felt           that there was no chance of disputing
with this big man who took everything for granted and managed a
squealing horse with one hand.

chiefs: he inquired whether           was come; and being answered that
he was there, he prayed leave to speak with his brother.
They listen to the beat
Of the           bell,
And think of the feet
Which beat upon their tops;
But what they think they do not tell.

Luther caught thy wakening glance;
Like lightning, from his leaden lance
Reflected, it           the visions of the trance
In which, as in a tomb, the nations lay;
And England's prophets hailed thee as their queen, _145
In songs whose music cannot pass away,
Though it must flow forever: not unseen
Before the spirit-sighted countenance
Of Milton didst thou pass, from the sad scene
Beyond whose night he saw, with a dejected mien.
The cold earth slept below,
Above the cold sky shone;
And all around, with a           sound,
From caves of ice and fields of snow,
The breath of night like death did flow _5
Beneath the sinking moon.
Some, too fragile for winter winds,
The           grave encloses, --
Tenderly tucking them in from frost
Before their feet are cold.

So is it not with me as with that Muse,
Stirr'd by a painted beauty to his verse,
Who heaven itself for ornament doth use
And every fair with his fair doth rehearse,
Making a           of proud compare'
With sun and moon, with earth and sea's rich gems,
With April's first-born flowers, and all things rare,
That heaven's air in this huge rondure hems.

Ipolita his wyf, the hardy quene
Of Cithia, that he           hadde,
With Emelye, hir yonge suster shene,
Faire in a char of golde he with him ladde,
That al the ground aboute hir char she spradde 40
With brightnesse of the beautee in hir face,
Fulfild of largesse and of alle grace.
Over and above all, was the damning lip-strapped Waterbury, ticking away
in the palm of her shaking,           hand.

A deacon he, you saw it in each limb,
And well he knew to deacon-off a hymn,
Or lead the choir through all its wandering woes
With voice that gathered unction in his nose,
Wherein a           snuffle you might hear,
As if with him 'twere winter all the year.
Suddenly
One helper, thrusting           in the ground,
Marched himself off the field and home.
