VII

And yet not all: though darkly alien

Those uncompleted worlds of work to be

Are waned; still, touched by them, the memory

Gives afterglow; and now that comes again

The mellow season when

Our eyes last met, his kindling currents run

Quickening within me gladness and new ken

Of life, that I have shared his prime with one

Who wrought large-minded for the love of men.
