Age Of Grandeur Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from The Silver Age: And Other Dramatic Memories Where silver mists the hill-tops cloak, Where scents the air the wood-fire's smoke, Where green and white in sunlight's shine The red-roofed house gleams o'er the chine, There 'neath the soundless sky's blue dome, There is rest - there is home. Where hosts of pines 'gainst western sky Uplift their serried spears on high, And through their branches' fret of bars Shine the kind eyes of evening stars, Where glows the sunset's golden foam, There is rest - there is home. The year's brave story, blue and gold, By sun and cloud and greenwood told, Enchants my heart and lifts my mind To dreams of hope that I may find, When spent of strength I no more roam, There my rest - there my home. Companion dear on life's high road, Who shared my pain and sorrow's load, Unfettered from the world's demands, Content we'll wait on love's commands, Where silvered gleams the even's gloam, Where is rest - where is home.
