PAN-WORSHIP AND OTHER POEMS
BY ELEANOR FARJEON LONDON ELKIN MATHEWS, VIGO STREET, W. 1908
TO MY FATHER

In Arcady there lies a crystal spring
Ring'd all about with green melodious reeds
Swaying seal'd music up and down the wind.
Here on its time-defacèd pedestal
The image of a half-forgotten God
Crumbles to its complete oblivion.
The faithful and invariable earth
Tilts at the shrine her sacrificial cup,
