I try to tell, I cannot tell, It still remains a mystery. And why to her I am so dear I cannot tell, although I try, Unless I find both answers here She is herself, and I am I. Her face is very sweet to me, Her eyes beam tenderly on mine; But can I say I never see Face fairer, eyes that brighter shine? This thing I surely cannot say, If I speak truth and do not lie; Yet here I am in love to-day, For she's herself, and I am I. It cannot be that I fulfil Completely all her girlish dreams; For far beyond my real still Her old'ideal surely gleams. And yet I know her love is mine, A flowing spring that cannot dry: What explanation? This, in fine She is herself, and I am I. And out amid the sea the silver trace shores, SIDNEY A. ALEXANDER.

Now gorgeous clouds like Tyrian tapestry Have dwindled sore my little term of man. Engird the sun, whose light upon them thrills Richer and fairer as he leaves their halls, Must it be ever thus? even to the end Till all the glory vanishes; and lo! Fearing to do aught lest I do the wrong, Swathed in a cloud, the little moon, new- Shall I my spirit's patrimony spend ? born, Arise, O God! this hour and make me Steals timidly around the starry walls, strong: Upon the golden eyelids of the morn.
