24．I Remember, I Remember
I remember, I remember
The house where I was born,
The little window where the sun
Came peeping m at morn(1);
He never came a wink too soon,
Nor brought too long a day,(2)
But now I often wish the night
Had borne my breath away I(3)
I remember, I remember
The roses red and white,
The violets, and the lily-cups,
Those flowers made of light !(4)
The lilacs where the robin built,
And where my brother set
The laburnum on his birth-day,--
The tree is living yet !
I remember, I remember
Where I was used to swing(5),
And thought the air must rush as fresh
To swallows on the wing(6);
My spirit flew in feathers then,
That is so heavy now,
And summer pools could hardly cool
The fever on my brow!
I remember, I remember
The fir-trees dark and high;
I used to think their slender tops
Were close against the sky:
It was a childish ignorance,
But now 't is little joy
To know I'm further off from heaven(7)
Than when I was a boy.
