THE LIGHTHOUSE. The plunging storm flies fierce against the pane, And thrills our cottage with redoubled shocks; The chimney mutters and the rafters strain ; Without, the breakers roar along the rocks. See, from our fire and taper-lighted room, How savage, pitiless, and uncontroll'd The grim horizon shows its tossing gloomOf waves from unknown angry gulfs uproll'd;Where, underneath that black portentous lid, A long pale space between the night and sea Gleams awful; while in deepest darkness hid All other things in our despair agree. But lo ! what star amid the thickest dark A soft and unexpected dawn has made ? O welcome Lighthouse, thy unruffled spark, Piercing the turmoil and the deathly shade ! THE LIGHTHOUSE. 67By such a glimpse o'er the distracted wave Full many a soul to-night is re-possest Of courage and of order, strong to save; And like effect it works within my breast. Three faithful men have set themselves to stand Against all storms that from the sky can blow, Where peril must expect no aiding hand, And tedium no relief may hope to know. Nor shout they, passing brothers to inform What weariness they feel, or what affright; But tranquilly in solitude and stormAbide from month to month, and show their light.chapter{Section 4XXIII. THE VALLEY STREAM. Stream flowing swiftly, what music is thine ! The breezy rock-pass, and the storm-wooing pine, Have taught thee their murmurs,Their wild mountain murmurs ; Subdued in thy liquid response to a sound Which aids the repose of this pastoral ground; Where our valley yet mingles an awe with thelove It smiles to the sheltering bastions above; —Thy cloud-haunted birthplace,O Stream, flowing swiftly!Encircle our meadows with bount... ...

Product Description
PREFACE AMONG my husbands papers I found, under his title of By the Way, a series of paragraphs and notes on various subjects, literary, ethical, critical. A selection from these, with others gathered from his note-books, form the nucleus of this little volume. To them have been added, at the beginning of the book, a number of short poems and fragments of verse, mostly of an earlier date than the prose notes. Many of these fragments sometimes only a couple of lines giving a vivid picture of a natural scene or effect must have been written when Allingham was a very young man living in Ire land, closely watching and noting the moods of Nature in sea and sky. In my selection and arrangement greatly assisted by Mrs. Ernest Radford and Mrs. I have been Baumer Williams for the publication, I alone am responsible. HELEN ALLINGHAM. HAMPSTEAD, 1912. TO THE FELLOW TRAVELLER Jog on,jog on, by valley and hill Sight and Thought are never still. Selfsame Worldfor you and me we think and see. Variously Here I show some thoughts of mine Gladly would 1 look at thine. Jog on agree or not agree, Friendly pilgrims let us be. VERSES AND FRAGMENTS VERSES THE HERMITAGE Far from the citys smoke and stir My quiet Hermitage is made, Where summer beech and winter fir Conjoin their hospitable shade. The north-star crowns my wooded hill Of devious paths and thicket mild, And by my garden foot a rill Sings to itself, like happy child. Childlike, I love that skylarks trills This airy bloom along the hills Enchants me newly budding trees, The bright brook shivering in the breeze, The clumps of flowrs, the wandering smells, And every voice that sinks or swells, And all the streaky blue above, As many years ago, I love. Thank Heavn for thisIbut childlike, no Experience will not come and go. ... Read more
