A FORGIVENESS.
Our 'Study,' for you wrote there while I scrawled
Some paper full of faces for my sport.
That room I can remember. Just one short
Word with you there, for the remembrance' sake!"
Some paper full of faces for my sport.
That room I can remember. Just one short
Word with you there, for the remembrance' sake!"
"Follow me thither!" I replied.
We break
The gloom a little, as with guiding lamp
I lead the way, leave warmth and cheer, by damp
Blind disused serpentining ways afar
From where the habitable chambers are,—
Ascend, descend stairs tunneled through the stone,—
Always in silence,—till I reach the lone
Chamber sepulchred for my very own
The gloom a little, as with guiding lamp
I lead the way, leave warmth and cheer, by damp
Blind disused serpentining ways afar
From where the habitable chambers are,—
Ascend, descend stairs tunneled through the stone,—
Always in silence,—till I reach the lone
Chamber sepulchred for my very own
