To One Deceived
#1
To One Deceived

All hearts are not disloyal; let thy trust
Be deep and clear and all-confinding still;
For though Love’s fruit turn on the lips to dust,
She never betrays her child to lasting il:

Through leagues of desert must the pilgrim go
Ere on his gaze the holy turrets rise;
Through the long sultry day the stream must flow
Ere it can mirror twilight’s purple skies.

Fall back unscathed from contact with the vain,
Keep thy robes white, the spirit bold and free,
And calmly launch affection’s bark again,

Hopeful of golden spoils reserved fo thee.
Though lone the way as that already trod,
Cling to thine own integrity and God!
