Not illustrated. 1892 edition. Excerpt: ...The past comes not again. But Thou, Creator of each seed, Art Lord of thistle and of weed. To my poor sight all mortal-dim, Full light has not been given; Two Songs. 79 Yet I have sometimes thought that tares Might bloom the rose of heaven; That what seems only fit to burn May yield at last a rich return.
