The hour was late; the fire burned low,The Landlord's eyes were closed in sleep,And near the story's end a deepSonorous sound at times was heard,As when the distant bagpipes blow.At this all laughed; the Landlord stirred,As one awaking from a swound,And, gazing anxiously around,Protested that he had not slept,But only shut his eyes, and keptHis ears attentive to each word.Then all arose, and said "Good Night."Alone remained the drowsy SquireTo rake the embers of the fire,And quench the waning parlor light;While from the windows, here and there,The scattered lamps a moment gleamed,And the illumined hostel seemedThe constellation of the Bear,Downward, athwart the misty air,Sinking and setting toward the sun.Far off the village clock struck one.

Between the dark and the daylight,When the night is beginning to lower,Comes a pause in the day's occupations,That is known as the Children's Hour.I hear in the chamber above meThe patter of little feet,The sound of a door that is opened,And voices soft and sweet.From my study I see in the lamplight,Descending the broad hall stair,Grave Alice, and laughing Allegra,And Edith with golden hair.A whisper, and then a silence:Yet I know by their merry eyesThey are plotting and planning togetherTo take me by surprise.A sudden rush from the stairway,A sudden raid from the hall!By three doors left unguardedThey enter my castle wall!They climb up into my turretO'er the arms and back of my chair;If I try to escape, they surround me;They seem to be everywhere.They almost devour me with kisses,Their arms about me entwine,Till I think of the Bishop of BingenIn his Mouse-Tower on the Rhine!Do you think, O blue-eyed banditti,Because you have scaled the wall,Such an old moustache as I amIs not a match for you all!I have you fast in my fortress,And will not let you depart,But put you down into the dungeonIn the round-tower of my heart.And there will I keep you forever,Yes, forever and a day,Till the walls shall crumble to ruin,And moulder in dust away!

Under Mount Etna he lies,It is slumber, it is not death;For he struggles at times to arise,And above him the lurid skiesAre hot with his fiery breath.The crags are piled on his breast,The earth is heaped on his head;But the groans of his wild unrest,Though smothered and half suppressed,Are heard, and he is not dead.And the nations far awayAre watching with eager eyes;They talk together and say,"To-morrow, perhaps to-day,Enceladus will arise!"And the old gods, the austereOppressors in their strength,Stand aghast and white with fearAt the ominous sounds they hear,And tremble, and mutter, "At length!"Ah me! for the land that is sownWith the harvest of despair!Where the burning cinders, blownFrom the lips of the overthrownEnceladus, fill the air.Where ashes are heaped in driftsOver vineyard and field and town,Whenever he starts and liftsHis head through the blackened riftsOf the crags that keep him down.See, see! the red light shines!'Tis the glare of his awful eyes!And the storm-wind shouts through the pinesOf Alps and of Apennines,"Enceladus, arise!"

At anchor in Hampton Roads we lay,On board of the Cumberland, sloop-of-war;And at times from the fortress across the bayThe alarum of drums swept past,Or a bugle blastFrom the camp on the shore.Then far away to the south uproseA little feather of snow-white smoke,And we knew that the iron ship of our foesWas steadily steering its courseTo try the forceOf our ribs of oak.Down upon us heavily runs,Silent and sullen, the floating fort;Then comes a puff of smoke from her guns,And leaps the terrible death,With fiery breath,From each open port.We are not idle, but send her straightDefiance back in a full broadside!As hail rebounds from a roof of slate,Rebounds our heavier hailFrom each iron scaleOf the monster's hide."Strike your flag!" the rebel cries,In his arrogant old plantation strain."Never!" our gallant Morris replies;"It is better to sink than to yield!"And the whole air pealedWith the cheers of our men.Then, like a kraken huge and black,She crushed our ribs in her iron grasp!Down went the Cumberland all a wrack,With a sudden shudder of death,And the cannon's breathFor her dying gasp.Next morn, as the sun rose over the bay,Still floated our flag at the mainmast-head.Lord, how beautiful was thy day!Every waft of the airWas a whisper of prayer,Or a dirge for the dead.Ho! brave hearts that went down in the seas!Ye are at peace in the troubled stream,Ho! brave land! with hearts like these,Thy flag, that is rent in twain,Shall be one again,And without a seam!

Out of the bosom of the Air,Out of the cloud-folds of her garments shaken,Over the woodlands brown and bareOver the harvest-fields forsaken,Silent, and soft, and slowDescends the snow.Even as our cloudy fancies takeSuddenly shape in some divine expression,Even as the troubled heart doth makeIn the white countenance confession,The troubled sky revealsThe grief it feels.This is the poem of the air,Slowly in silent syllables recorded;This is the secret of despair,Long in its cloudy bosom hoarded,Now whispered and revealedTo wood and field.

O gift of God! O perfect day:Whereon shall no man work, but play;Whereon it is enough for me,Not to be doing, but to be!Through every fibre of my brain,Through every nerve, through every vein,I feel the electric thrill, the touchOf life, that seems almost too much.I hear the wind among the treesPlaying celestial symphonies;I see the branches downward bent,Like keys of some great instrument.And over me unrolls on highThe splendid scenery of the sky,Where through a sapphire sea the sunSails like a golden galleon,Towards yonder cloud-land in the West,Towards yonder Islands of the Blest,Whose steep sierra far upliftsIts craggy summits white with drifts.Blow, winds! and waft through all the roomsThe snow-flakes of the cherry-blooms!Blow, winds! and bend within my reachThe fiery blossoms of the peach!O Life and Love! O happy throngOf thoughts, whose only speech is song!O heart of man! canst thou not beBlithe as the air is, and as free?

Labor with what zeal we will,Something still remains undone,Something uncompleted stillWaits the rising of the sun.By the bedside, on the stair,At the threshold, near the gates,With its menace or its prayer,Like a mendicant it waits;Waits, and will not go away;Waits, and will not be gainsaid;By the cares of yesterdayEach to-day is heavier made;Till at length the burden seemsGreater than our strength can bear,Heavy as the weight of dreams,Pressing on us everywhere.And we stand from day to day,Like the dwarfs of times gone by,Who, as Northern legends say,On their shoulders held the sky.
Labor with what zeal we will,Something still remains undone,Something uncompleted stillWaits the rising of the sun.
By the bedside, on the stair,At the threshold, near the gates,With its menace or its prayer,Like a mendicant it waits;
Waits, and will not go away;Waits, and will not be gainsaid;By the cares of yesterdayEach to-day is heavier made;
Till at length the burden seemsGreater than our strength can bear,Heavy as the weight of dreams,Pressing on us everywhere.
And we stand from day to day,Like the dwarfs of times gone by,Who, as Northern legends say,On their shoulders held the sky.
O little feet! that such long yearsMust wander on through hopes and fears,Must ache and bleed beneath your load;I, nearer to the wayside innWhere toil shall cease and rest begin,Am weary, thinking of your road!O little hands! that, weak or strong,Have still to serve or rule so long,Have still so long to give or ask;I, who so much with book and penHave toiled among my fellow-men,Am weary, thinking of your task.O little hearts! that throb and beatWith such impatient, feverish heat,Such limitless and strong desires;Mine that so long has glowed and burned,With passions into ashes turnedNow covers and conceals its fires.O little souls! as pure and whiteAnd crystalline as rays of lightDirect from heaven, their source divine;Refracted through the mist of years,How red my setting sun appears,How lurid looks this soul of mine!
