The psalm, the sorrow, and the simple praise
Of one whose promised thoughts of other days
Were such as ours, but now wholly destroyed,
The service record of his youth wiped out,
His dream dispersed by shot, must disappear.”

For changes wrought on form and face;
No lower life that earth’s embrace
May breed with him can fright my faith.”
