FROM A GRECIAN MYTH

By John William Draper

A palace he built him in the west,

A palace of vermeil fringed with gold;

And fain would he lie him down to rest

In the palace he built him in the west

Which every heavenly hue had dressed

With halcyon harmonies untold:

That palace, the sun built in the west,

A palace of vermeil fringed with gold.
