Excerpt from Lays of Love and Faith: With Other Fugitive Poems As one arranges in a simple vase, A little store of unpretending flowers, So gathered I some records of past hours, And trust them, gentle reader, to thy grace, Nor hope that in my pages thou wilt trace The brilliant proof of high poetic powers, But dear memorials of my happy days, When Heaven shed blessings on my heart, like showers Clothing with beauty ev'n the desert place, Till I, with thankful gladness in my looks, Turned me to God, sweet nature, loving friends, Christ's little children, well-worn ancient books, The charm of art, the rapture music sends: And sang away the grief that on man's lot attends.
