Josephine Preston Peabody Golden Poems

  • 1.
    I

    Over the broken world, the dark gone by,
    Horror of outcast darkness torn with wars;
    ...
  • 2.
    Oh, who will hush that cry outside the doors,
    While we are glad within?
    Go forth, go forth, all you my servitors;

    And the far rose of Pæstum once did climb.
