But no, I will not curse them: thro' the world A curse will follow them, like the black plague Tracking their footsteps ever--day and night, Morning and eve, summer and winter ever. - [Curses] Half of the ills we hoard within our hearts, Are ills because we hoard them. - [Grief] It is ever thus with happiness; It is the gay to-morrow of the mind, That never comes. - [Happiness] She is as constant as the stars That never vary, and more chaste than they. - [Fidelity] I think of the garden after the rain; And hope to my heart comes singing, "At morn the cherry-blooms will be white, And the Easter bells be ringing!" - Easter Bells [Easter] The fasts are done; the Aves said; The moon has filled her horn And in the solemn night I watch Before the Easter morn. So pure, so still the starry heaven, So hushed the brooding air, I could hear the sweep of an angel's wings If one should earthward fare. - Easter Carol [Easter]
