THE TRYST 93

Thy duty earliest and latest.

Thy future rests in its embrace

With cure for ills that now abase.

Thou land of poetry and longing,

Fill now thy heart, thy spirit free!

The Northern banner waits for thee!

While softly gliding
Sink the still hours to eternity’s sleep.
My fancies roaming
List in the gloaming:—
Will she the trysting now keep?

Smiling their light through its cloud-veil

Summer foretelling
Sweet love compelling ;—

*Neath the ice lying,
Longing and sighing,
