Ml PALACE OF DREAMS.
Away from the dust and toil and strife
Of this v eary world where I droop and pine;
And from the cares and thorns of life
I go to the palace of dreams divine 1
I go to the palace of dreams !
And hither 1 carry my worn heart, too,
To driuk the freshness as flowers the dew.
In this charmed palace so fair, so fair,
A wonderful spring time reigns alway.
Mere are sweet June roses to wreathe the hair,
Buds of April and flowers of May.
Flowers, flowers with dew-drops softly hung,
Under their jewels they gleam and g,ow;
A..d under these I forget that ever
Hearts are broken or hopes laid low—
I forget old sorrow and only know
That love was sweet when I was young—
For deep in the shade with a liquid flow
The beautiful faded Lethean river
Goes by my palace of dreams.
The voice of a bird in the twilight singing|
Its early song vith dewy throat,
The dreamy hum of a glad bee winging
Its homeward flight from flowers remote,
Is not more sweet than sounds that float
Moaning, windlike, evermore
Through each long shadowy corridor,
And, lo ! through all this palace of mine
The sjft rhymes wander, ballad and song,
On the wings of some melody glad and strong
My soul is borne to the innermost shrine—
To the chambers fair that are furnished meet
For the ingoing of love’s soft feet
In my beautiful palace of dreams.
The silken poppy with drooping bead,
The lilies blossom, and myrtlo spray,
And heavy roses of white and red,
Hang over the portals coo> and gray
Of my beautiful palace of dreams.
And tenderlyj nderly, evermore
Love meets my soul at the open door—
The sweet lost lore of the days of yore,
That lives in the palate of dreams.
There, served forever by memory,
This fair immutable love of mine,
Forgotten of all the world save me,
Is crowned with its immortality
In my palace ot dreams divine—
My palace of dreams that is built so fair
That love may live forever there.
In this world of shadows alone, alone,
Whatever of sorrow or pain I dree,
Let no soft heart have pity for me -
Let no sweet soul for me make moan ;
For have I not love in my palace of dreams ?
All gorgeous music ’tis mine to hear,
All pleasure roses ’tis mine lo wear,
0, I softly live, and I daiutly fare,
With love in my palace of dreams.
