Página 65 - Be golden ; let the cold, clear blue of night Whiten with stars as now ! then shall I fade From life to life — pass on the year's full tide Into the swell and vast of the outer sea Beyond this narrow world. For Autumn days To me not melancholy are, but full Of joy and hope, mysterious and high ; And with strange promise rife.
