In Memoriam A.H.H.
If
any vision should reveal
Thy likeness, I might count it vain
As but the canker of the brain;
Yea,
tho’ it spake and made appeal
To
chances where our lots were cast
Together in the days behind,
I might but say, I hear a wind
Of
memory murmuring the past.
Yea,
tho’ it spake and bared to view
A fact within the coming year;
And tho’ the months, revolving near,
Should
prove the phantom-warning true,
They
might not seem thy prophecies,
But spiritual presentiments,
And such refraction of events
As
often rises ere they rise.
