CANCELLED STANZA.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
[Published in “The Times” (Rossetti).]
Gather, O gather,
Foeman and friend in love and peace!
Waves sleep together
When the blasts that called them to battle, cease.
For fangless Power grown tame and mild _5
Is at play with Freedom’s fearless child—
The dove and the serpent reconciled!
