    When infant Science makes a pleasant face
    And waves again that hollow toy, the Race;

    The house is shut and still,
    There is nothing more to say.

    And at his heart there may have gnawed
    Sick memories of a dead faith foiled and flawed

    We cannot know how much we learn
    From those who never will return,
    Until a flash of unforeseen
    Remembrance falls on what has been.

    Or what mischance, or other cause,
    Had banished him from better days
    To play the Prince of Castaways.
