r.Coxz, Evening, once again, eeuou or peMe;
Returu, sweet Evening, and continue long I
M.ethiloke I Pee thee iu the streaky west,
With matron atep slow ruoving, -while the Night.
Treaols on thy sweeping train ; one ba.nd employ'd
In Jetting fall the curtain of repoee
On bird and beast, the other charged for man
With aweet oblivion of the cares of de.y:
Not sumptuously 1vlorn'ti, nor needing aid,
Lib homely-featured Nil!h\ of clustering gema;
A at.~r or two, just twinkling on thy brow,
Suffices tbee ; Mve that the moon is thine,
No leu than ht'n, not worn intl~ed on hi~h
With ostentatious pageantry, but aet
With lDode~t grandeur in thy purple zone,
Resplendent lesa, but or an ampler rouud.

Not eofter on the west~rn wave
The golden lines of aunaet glow.Tben e.ll by ehe.nce or fate remond,
