Excerpt from Poems

No words of wondrous power are mine, No spells to charm the listening throng; I do not hope to join the ranks Of those who breathe immortal song.

Nor would I, with irreverent tread, Approach the altars where they stand, the mighty masters, laurel-crowned, Each with the palm-branch in his hand.

Ah rather would I veil my face, And kneel afar in humblest awe; As he who, trembling and afraid, The glory of Mount Sinai saw.
