Thomas Wentworth Higginson, Afternoon landscape: poems and translations, Prologue. (search)

Prologue. [Recited by a young lady at the first performance of the Vassall House Dramatic Club, Cambridge, Mass., Dec. 8, 1882.] Beneath this roof the stately Vassall race Once swept these halls in velvet and point-lace, Sedately welcomed many an English lord, And met him with the snuff-box, not the sword. A hundred years are passed. We fill the scene With humbler graces, less chivalric mien. Yet you may see upon our mimic stage The show and semblance of that earlier age; The old brocades may veil some modern form Of living beauty and of heart still warm; And we, the youths and maidens of to-day, Will be your vassals if you'll like our play.
