• The holiest of all holidays are those
  Kept by ourselves in silence and apart;
  The secret anniversaries of the heart,
  When the full river of feeling overflows;-
  The happy days unclouded to their close;
  The sudden joys that our of darkness start
  As flames from ashes; swift desires that dart
  Like swallows singing down each wind that blows!
