THE PROMISED REST.

Yea, thou shalt have thy peace, thy calm delight,

Dim sanctuary, thy canopy of leaves;

The light web that the summer starlight weaves

And the wild wayfaring of waters bright,

And songs of husbandmen among the sheaves:

Thus may thou be with many glories dight,

Thus sit and sing under thy forest eaves.

1917.
