Ranolf and Amohia | ||

“Well, that I cannot understand, you know;
But tell me what you think yourself is true;
That I am certain must be right—and so
Will I believe, and only trust in you.”
But tell me what you think yourself is true;
That I am certain must be right—and so
Will I believe, and only trust in you.”
“In me, dear Child!—but that indeed
Were trusting to a broken reed!”
Were trusting to a broken reed!”
“That reed no whit the less shall be
A staff of trust and truth for me!”
A staff of trust and truth for me!”
“Well then, suppose your eyes you close,
And on my shoulder rest your head,
While lasts, my sweet! this noontide heat
And that shrill music sunshine-bred;
And try to sleep while I devise
Some answer wondrous deep and wise
To my fond querist, little dreaming
What mysteries questions may comprise
To her so plain and simple-seeming.”
And on my shoulder rest your head,
While lasts, my sweet! this noontide heat
And that shrill music sunshine-bred;
And try to sleep while I devise
Some answer wondrous deep and wise
To my fond querist, little dreaming
What mysteries questions may comprise
To her so plain and simple-seeming.”

“There—then; I will be still as death—”
And soon the soft-recurring breath
Long-drawn, and breast that gently heaves,
Tell how the life that gushed and glanced
So brightly, lies in sleep entranced—
Sleep, placid, light and infantine—
Serene as those green-imaged leaves
That up through crystal pointing shine.
And soon the soft-recurring breath
Long-drawn, and breast that gently heaves,
Tell how the life that gushed and glanced
So brightly, lies in sleep entranced—
Sleep, placid, light and infantine—
Serene as those green-imaged leaves
That up through crystal pointing shine.
