Augustin S. Macdonald, comp. A Collection of Verse by California Poets. 1914.

By Herbert Heron

To William Vaughn Moody

The Poet of “The Fire Bringer”

DEAD! and we gaze, unseeing, on your bier,

Where westward thunders roll;

But though you die, your living song is clear

(Prometheus lights your goal);

And till we too are taken, we can hear

That music from your soul!
