Book excerpt: Excerpt from Inez De Castro: A Poem in Three Cantos Or that its highest praise is dear, Ah no! For these, my simple lays, I ask no patron - court no praise. I only sing because I feel, Things that my soul cannot conceal I sing because I know Mine eye, At least, will love my'poesy. For when alone - oppressed With care, I lay, self-torturing, in despair And looked upon my future track, And found the prospect scowling black When a dark lot my heart deplored, And round the'surgin'g tempest roared 't was thou, who dawned in holy light And scattered all my Spirit's night; And floating on thy golden wings, Awoke my soul to happier things And still in the blue-'heaven afar, Beams't'bright and fairs - my morning Star Now when - gay Fancies wayward child At times I sing a measure wild; Thy silver tones so sweet and clear, Are all the praise I care to hear' So, dearest, listen to my song, And if at times the notes appear, Too deep - empassioned and too strong, For shadowy heroine to hear, 0 let thy thought at such time be, When thus he sang - he thought of me!
