Who hath thus waked thee from thy second trance By the soft magic of one pitying glance Crowned Daughter of the Pharaohs! is it he Who bore thee from thy home of Infancy!--And is t for him to bring back Joys rich smile To thy worn cheek--Flower of the haughty Nile! Oh! Woman!--unto every love thus true, Well may thine hours of rosy calm be few! CHURCHYARD CONTEMPLATIONS. It is a mournful and a solemn spot Where Death--pale presence!--is--where Life is not; And all that would be bright and glad elsewhere, And soft, and sweet, and exquisite, and fair, Here gains a shadowy and a thoughtful gloom, Won from the awful contact of the tomb! Here Summer, royal in her pomp, doth wear A borrowed mournfulness--which all must share--A borrowed mournfulness that smites the heart--The heart which feels ere long tis doomed to part, To leave but ashes and but dust behind, For all the burning thoughts within it shrined; The towering energies then slackening droop, Loosed from their strenuous hold on Sky-built Hope, Youths falcon eye, that drinks the rushing light, And shines as if with fire from Heaven--so bright--So kindlingly and deeply bright, assumes A fixed, cold stillness mongst these Time-worn Tombs--Youths burning heart that joyously forgot Fates awful certainties--here feels its lot, And quiveringly submits, with grief and pain, And owns its glowing day-dreams are but vain! And Age here draws a yet more shortened breath, And faints with an anticipated Death! Throughout all changeful and revolving times, All varying circumstance--all differing climes--Thou ever hast thine awful S. . . This item ships from La Vergne,TN.
