PROLOGUE Even light itself, which every thing displays, Shone undiscovered, till their brighter minds Untwisted all the shining robe of day; And from the whitening undistinguished blaze, Collecting every ray into their kind. To the charmed eye educed the gorgeous train Of parent colors. First the flaming red Sprung vivid forth; the tawny orange next; And next delicious yellow; by whose side Fell the kind beams of all-refreshing green; Then the pure blue, that swells autumnal skies. Ethereal played; and then, of sadder hue, Emerged the deepend indigo, as when The heavy-skirted evening droops with frost While the last gleamings of refracted light Died in the fainting violet away.

DEDICATION He was a giver, He was a molder, He was a builder Witli a strong shoulder. Six feet and over, Large boned and ruddy, The eyes grey-hazel But bright with study. Fronn buying empires To planting ' taters. From Declarations To trick dumb-waiters. I liked the people, The sweat and crowd of them. Trusted them always And spoke aloud of them. I liked all learning And wished to share it Abroad like pollen For all who merit. Page 5
