Ye old, old dead, and ye of yesternight,
Chieftains, and bards, and keepers of the sheep,
By every cup of sorrow that you had,
Loose me from tears, and make me see aright
How each hath back what once he stayed to weep:
Homer his sight, David his little lad!
THE DUST
The dust blows up and down
Within the lonely town;
Vague, hurrying, dumb, aloof,
