The Voiceless.

Nay, grieve not for the dead alone, - Whose song has told their hearts’ sad story; Weep for the voiceless, who have known The cross without the crown of glory 1 Not where Leucadian breezes sweep O’er Sappho’s memory-haunted billow, But where the glistening night dews weep On nameness sorrow’s churchyard pillow. -Holmes.
