LINES FOR AN OMAR PUNCH-BOWL.

(To C B.)

Ornar^ dyings left his dust
To the rose and vine in trust.

" Thro' a thousand springs/' said he,
** Mix your memories with me.

** Fire the sap that fills each bud
With an essence from my blood.

*' When the garden glows with June
Use me thro' the scented noon

" Till the heat's alchemic art
Fashions me in every part.

" You, whose petals strew the grass
'Round my lone inverted glass,

'' Each impassioned atom mould
To a red bloom with core of gold.

** You, whose tendrils, soft as tears,
Touch me with remembered years,

'^-^.iii'

SS^S^^SS^SS^^^S

" Where your globing clusters shine
Slow distil my dreams to wine ;

** Till by many a sweet rebirth
Love and joy transmute my earth,

** Changing me, on some £ar day,
To a more ecstatic day,

" Whence the Potter's craft sublime
Shall mould a shape to outlast Time/'

V- mar's body, Omar's soul.
Breathe in beauty from this bowl.

At whose thronged, mystcr-Ais rim
Wan desires, enchantments dim.

Tears and laughter, life and death.
Fleeing love and fainting breath.

Seem to waver like a flame.
Dissolve, — yet ever rest the same,

Fixed by your art, while art shall be.
In passionate immobility.

22 Test 9th street.
New York, February, 1901 .
