Amid our busy people we admire him—"elegant and lone."

He scarce needs words, so exquisite the skill

Which modulates the tones to do his will,

That the mere sound enough would charm the ear,

And lap in its Elysium all who hear.

The intellectual paleness of his cheek,

The heavy eyelids and slow, tranquil smile,

The well cut lips from which the graces speak,

Fit him alike to win or to beguile;

Then those words so well chosen, fit, though few,
