Excerpt from Fragments: Pen Pictures and Memorabilia
Dedication
Between the centuries my songs I lay
Upon thy altars, dearest friends of mine,
The memorabilia of loves divine,
And lays of life, along life's changeful way,
Imprinted on the page, in black array,
Less fortunate, I fear, than line on line
I tear, and to the cache-morceau consign,
Or flames consume, and roll in smoke away.
Yet heart-throbs will your kind hearts move, and may
Invoke to pure intent to please. In fine,
To hide 'neath rose-leaves and sweet eglantine,
All faltering feet, and false rhymes run astray.
Thy precious time and lenient thought, I pray,
And thou art pleased, then, happy, I am thine.
