In the Land of the Blue Gown
By Mrs. Archibald Little
Author of
“Round about my Peking Garden”
"Beware the fury of a patient man." — Dryden.
"I think they immortal powers of unkindly
Wrath, who sent great dreams, with no slow degrees
The World-Soul grew, and in the outer mist
Mourned not Mankind's love-lorn loyalty lost,
The star to us no more her beams relayed.
The new-born tides flow in vast wreckless less;
The little islanded in tragick process,
The dye in all majestic meanings blind."
— William Watson
