Trembling on heaven’s pinnacles to-night,

Is lifted your sad face of love while you

Stare upward toward me, staring upward, too,

At that faint flame which is your home, between

The leafy branches of these poplars seen—

So hushed, so far! Perhaps to-night you scan

Your starry heaven for the star of Man,

High in the trellis of eternity

And glittering arches hung; perhaps like me

You, too, look up and wonder. Is it fair,
