Excerpt from The Luck-Flower: And Other Verses
The Storm.
The feast is o'er at last, the measure trod,
The drowsy god asserts his gentle sway,
The air seems heavy while the elders nod,
Though young feet fain would dance the night away,
And I, less fain than once, have crept away,
My mind now hot with hope, now chilled with cold dismay.
Raising the curtain, which my casement veiled,
I looked abroad into the peaceful night,
Above, unclouded, through her kingdom sailed
The radiant moon, flooding the plain with light,
Below the winding river might have been
A silver snake asleep, enchanted by her sheen.
