Book Description
Excerpt from The Re-Strung Harp Poems The Re-Strung Harp. In years agone my harp was laid away; The harp o'er which my fingers used to stray, And wake its ready strings to varied tones - Now gay - and now suppressed and trembling moans. The years have come and gone, in rapid flight, And left me gray of hair, and dim of sight; My harp, untouched, forgotten, long has lain, All hush'd its notes to songs of joy or pain. Today, as recollection backward turned, And scenes, long past, within my memory burned, My harp, with dust and cobwebs cover'd o'er, Persistent claimed my consciousness once more. And can it be re-strung and tuned again? And will the ear take pleasure in its strain? Ah, me! why hath it lain, unused, so long, If I and it have yet the power of song?

Book Description
Excerpt from Harp of Hesper: Songs and Poems Harp of Hesper. Songs And Poems. Winter. Where Autumn's robe in softer dyes Lay touched, the ling'ring summer's day Lo, Winter's silv'ry chariot flies, Pearl-mounted, with his steeds of gray! The far-off hills, from purple shade Of umber dun, to mountain's height, Lie chiseled round by winter's blade In willowy, winding paths of white! Down the ravines lie folded o'er The dimpled forms of drifting snows, To low-lands stretch; from shore to shore, By river's bed, a chill wind blows. O, over all the earth lies deep The scattered pearls of Winter's reign; But Spring again from drowsy sleep Shall wake to life her star-eyed train!
