MARGARET
The moon spans Heaven’s architrave ;
Stars in the deep are set ;
Written in gold on the day’s grave,
“ To love, and to forget ; ”
And sea-winds whisper o’er the wave
The name of Margaret.
A heart of gold, a flower of white,
A blushing flame of snow,
She moves like latticed moons of light—
And O ! her voice is low,
Shell-murmurs borne to Amphitrite,
Exulting as they go.
