And I will see before I die

The palms and temples of the South.


THE TRAVELLER.

Remote, unfriended, melancholy, slow,—

Or by the lazy Scheldt or wandering Po;

Or onward, where the rude Carinthian boor

Against the houseless stranger shuts the door;

Or where Campania’s plain forsaken lies, 5

A weary waste expanding to the skies;—
