On me, on me Time and change can heap no more! The painful past with blighting grief Hath left my heart a withered leaf. Time and change can do no more. - Dirge [Grief] Far out at sea,--the sun was high, While veer'd the wind and flapped the sail, We saw a snow-white butterfly Dancing before the fitful gale, Far out at sea. - Genius [Butterflies] 'Tis always morning somewhere in the world. - Orion (bk. III, canto II) [Compensation] The laurel-tree grew large and strong, Its roots went searching deeply down; It split the marble walls of Wrong, And blossomed o'er the Despot's crown. - The Laurel Seed [Laurel] Ye rigid Ploughmen! bear in mind Your labour is for future hours: Advance--spare not--nor look behind-- Plough deep and straight with all your powers! - The Plough [Agriculture]
