The lithe limbs bow'd as with a heavy weight

And all the senses weaken'd in all save that

Which, long ago, they had glean'd and garner'd up

Into the granaries of memory—

The clear brow, bulwark of the precious brain,

Now seam'd and chink'd with years—and all the while

The light soul twines and mingles with the growths

Of vigorous early days, attracted, won,

Married, made one with, molten into all

The beautiful in Past of act or place.
