    the tide rises‚ the tide falls. The morning breaks; the steeds in their stalls Stamp and neigh‚ as the hostler calls; The day returns‚ but nevermore Returns the traveler to the shore. And the tide rises‚ the tide falls.

    first my casement is wide open thrown | |   At dawn‚ my eyes delighted on it rest; | |   Sometimes‚ and most in winter‚—on its crest | | A gray baboon sits statue-like alone |         15 |   Watching the sunrise; while on lower boughs | | His puny offspring leap about and play; | | And far and near kokilas hail the day; | |   And to their pastures wend our sleepy cows; | | And in the shadow‚ on the broad tank cast |         20 | By that hoar tree‚ so beautiful and vast‚ | |

    Poems 2/HS305 The Harp Of India Why hang’st thou lonely on yon withered bough? Unstrung for ever‚ must thou there remain; Thy music once was sweet - who hears it now? Why doth the breeze sigh over thee in vain? Silence hath bound thee with her fatal chain; Neglected‚ mute‚ and desolate art thou‚ Like ruined monument on desert plain: O! many a hand more worthy far than mine Once thy harmonious chords to sweetness gave‚ And many a wreath for them did Fame entwine Of flowers still blooming on the
