ROMANCE

"C'est toi qui dors dans l'ombre, ô sacré Souvenir."

If we could have remembrance now

And see, as in the days to come

We shall, what's venturous in these hours:
The swift, intangible romance of fields at home,
The gleams of fun, the showers,

Our workaday contentments, or our powers

To fare still forward through the uncharted baes
Of present days.

For, looking back when years shall flow

Upon this olden day that's now,

We'll see, romantic in dimn'd hours,

these memories of ours.
