Excerpt from Ione, and Other Poems As one who for a season has been confined' In some dense city, at whose brazen gate Delight, and Love and Beauty rarely wait, And song breathes never on the smoky wind, At last, rejoicing, leaves those scenes behind Of cheerless trade and commerce, and, slate, Hies him toward the country's green estate With willing heart and newly sweetened mind So leaves the Bard the dusty paths of prose And hastes to his beloved Muse again, Leaves unmelodious writings to compose Songs liquid sweet as springs Pierian, And as he sings of summer and the rose Joy holds the Poet's hand and guides his pen!
