The Boy And the Angel
Morning, evening, noon and night,
``Praise God!; sang Theocrite.


Then to his poor trade he turned,
Whereby the daily meal was earned.


Hard he laboured, long and well;
O'er his work the boy's curls fell.


But ever, at each period,
He stopped and sang, ``Praise God!''

Then back again his curls he threw,
And cheerful turned to work anew.


Said Blaise, the listening monk, ``Well done;
``I doubt not thou art heard, my son:

``As well as if thy voice to-day
``Were praising God, the Pope's great way.


``This Easter Day, the Pope at Rome
``Praises God from Peter's dome.
''

Said Theocrite, ``Would God that I
``Might praise him, that great way, and die!''

Night passed, day shone,
And Theocrite was gone.


With God a day endures alway,
A thousand years are but a day.


God said in heaven, ``Nor day nor night
``Now brings the voice of my delight.
''

Then Gabriel, like a rainbow's birth,
Spread his wings and sank to earth;

Entered, in flesh, the empty cell,
Lived there, and played the craftsman well;

And morning, evening, noon and night,
Praised God in place of Theocrite.


And from a boy, to youth he grew:
The man put off the stripling's hue:

The man matured and fell away
Into the season of decay:

And ever o'er the trade he bent,
And ever lived on earth content.


(He did God's will; to him, all one
If on the earth or in the sun.
)

God said, ``A praise is in mine ear;
``There is no doubt in it, no fear:

``So sing old worlds, and so
``New worlds that from my footstool go.


``Clearer loves sound other ways:
``I miss my little human praise.
''

Then forth sprang Gabriel's wings, off fell
The flesh disguise, remained the cell.


'Twas Easter Day: he flew to Rome,
And paused above Saint Peter's dome.


In the tiring-room close by
The great outer gallery,

With his holy vestments dight,
Stood the new Pope, Theocrite:

And all his past career
Came back upon him clear,

Since when, a boy, he plied his trade,
Till on his life the sickness weighed;

And in his cell, when death drew near,
An angel in a dream brought cheer:

And rising from the sickness drear
He grew a priest, and now stood here.


To the East with praise he turned,
And on his sight the angel burned.


``I bore thee from thy craftsman's cell
``And set thee here; I did not well.


``Vainly I left my angel-sphere,
``Vain was thy dream of many a year.


``Thy voice's praise seemed weak; it dropped---
``Creation's chorus stopped!

``Go back and praise again
``The early way, while I remain.


``With that weak voice of our disdain,
``Take up creation's pausing strain.


``Back to the cell and poor employ:
``Resume the craftsman and the boy!''

Theocrite grew old at home;
A new Pope dwelt in Peter's dome.


One vanished as the other died:
They sought God side by side.
