    Dies like the dolphin, whom each pang imbues
    With a new colour as it gasps away,
    The last still loveliest, till--'tis gone--and all is gray.

When round the ruins of their ancient oak
The peasants flocked to hear the minstrel play,
And games and carols closed the busy day.

Sweet shadows of twilight! how calm their repose,
While the dewdrops fall soft in the breast of the rose!
How blest to the toiler his hour of release
When the vesper is heard with its whisper of peace!

Well they have done their office, those bright hours,
The latest of whose train goes softly out
In the red west.
