No sullen tropic sun shall wither
The roses in the rose-garden which is ours and ours only”

Hath but a losing office, and his tongue
Sounds ever after as a sullen bell,
Remembered tolling a departing friend.”

Down deeper than the canyons undersea
The sullen spectrum of a buried lake
Nobody saw; not seen even by me....”
