----------------
"After long following of stranger faces
By untried hills and overfretful foam,
After long wandering in alien places
To-night, I sleep at home.

To-night the old house opens tender arms
To draw me in, aweary, to its breast,
While, slow, a throng of scarce-remembered charms
Weaves me a spell of rest."
