Could no voice still the callings of his heart? And so he sat down-hearted in his room. Were there no hands to tear the veil apart When some one knocked. It was a traveller; That he might see what none had seen before? And Faustus prone to hospitality Ah, yes! perhaps. 'Tis said the white-robed priests Bade him come in and drink" of cheering wines. Of Mona's oak-encircled solitudes, That his commission might be easier told. Learned to commune with ghostly messengers, And baffled reason with their borrowed craft. The stranger sat and drained the sparkling glass, Perhaps some hidden parchment could reveal His slate-gray hair hung in dishevelled locks How those dumb-mouthed mortals learned to lisp And cast a shadow o'er his grayer eyes; The spirit language made for spirit lips? There was a look of wisdom on his face. And in his short and well-told narrative So Faustus' thoughts tossed on his restless mind. Naught seemed to be reflected but the truth. As waves are tossed upon the troubled sea. " My path leads homeward o'er the snowy Alps But while he still looked for a guiding light, Into the land of flaming suns," quoth he, There flashed on him the oft-recurring thought. " But I was feared by all the hamlets 'round. Might there not be a lore-filled scroll concealed And found no friend among that simple race. Among the relics of his ancestry? Because I bear the stamp of sorcerer. There was a musty casket in his room. Did fathers tell their sons to fly from me Most rudely carved, and bound in brazen ribs; And mothers hush their children with my name; And 'round it shades of mystery had crept. And here I am, a weary wanderer. For no anointed hand had opened it Who seeks a friend from those who know him not. Since the dim days of Woden's hallowed heaths. And Faustus, in the morning of his life. " There stands the cottage where I passed the night Had stood before his dying father's couch Amid the over-ripening fields of wheat To hear the words he muttered as he held Wind-rocked into a sea of golden waves. This time-worn heirloom of his accestors • There dwells the peasant who wound 'round your name Up inhis withered arms. A story that might reach around the world. It made his young blood chill to hear the tale; And pointed out the road that brought me here. And, with his father's hand in his, he swore But bade me to avoid this lonely place— That he would never break the sacred bond. Ah, how alike the webs that fortune weaves With the fast-flying shuttle of our lives! But time had wrought a change; And Faustus, in the noontide of his life. " You call me friend! No, call me not a friend, Forgot his virtue and his boyish fears; Alas! that friendship's task is difficult: He sought the fellowship of reckless youths; Like heavy mail it weighs upon our backs. Their merry laughs drowned out all loneliness. Yet it protects us from our enemies. Yet, pleasure often poisons while it soothes: Much have I done that mortals should not do; Refreshing is the shade of Upas-trees, Much have I learned that mortals should not know; But deadly are their dews. And ne'er forget, you who now seek my craft. The art I practised was hell's jugglery; And so it happened that one winter night, My stakes were souls, and human bones my dice: Disgusted with the writ of Persia's priests You cannot subjugate the unseen world And dragging mind-worn through age-yellowed Until you pledge your soul as I have done." scrolls— The pagan rites of Babylon and Ind— While Faustus listened to the stranger's tale, He roused himself as from a feverish dream. The long-unheeded words his father spoke And shrieked a curse that rent the slumbering air; Before he died, came wandering by like ghosts. And from the empty corridors of night That raised their shadowy arms and said "Beware!" The echo mocked him with his father's name. But Faustus hearkened to no warning voice; With one dull stroke he broke the casket bands His heart was stubborn as Lofoden's cliffs And in the hands that made him perjurer That stand unmoved through drifting centuries He* lifted out a book in metal clasped— Against the whirling waters of the sea. • The long-sought volume of forbidden lore.

Ophidian charms and necromantic signs Unholy books had paved the. road to ruin. Were writ in blood upon its shrivelled leaves; Like meteors his vain hopes flashed and fell With penetrating eyes he searched each page And even,now a quick, delusive light Until the oil-exhausted lamp went out. Burst through the labyrinthine cr3rptogram. And morn began to steal across the sky. As Faustus paged it for his learned guest. Strange that he never saw so well before: Day after day the patient toiler worked; The Druid symbols and their keys profane His ashen brow betrayed anxiety; Stood out as letters hewed in porphyry. His deep-sunk eyes the curse of sleepless nights; And care was gnawing at the roots of life, He read. 'Twas written as the seer had said. Until one morn, when autumn's dreary winds It seemed to Faustusbut a golden chance Drove falling leaves into the brooks arid vales, To satisfy his infinite desire. - Filled \yith the bitter hemlock of; despair, Could he :not drain the bid man's learned brain, . •He threw, aside the undeciphered book Disguised beneath the mask of fellowship. That barred out friends and stole away his health. • And then out-wit him with his sorcery? '722 NOTRE DAME SCHOLASTIC.

He took a quill, and with unsteady stroke A charioteer who rolls through Eden lands, He wrote in his own blood a document And sees his unchecked steed dash madly down That pledged him to the barter of his soul. Steep slopes into a yawning gulf below. Why does the fool ask for this worthless writ? What can a mortal do with human souls? The season came and then the dreaded day: Thought Faustus: ere the twentieth year has waned Anon as in eclipses shadows move. To claim the payment of the wondrous debt So swept towards him the dismal hour of death. He will regret the bargain he now makes; The night was brightly lighted by the stars But it will be too late then to regret, As ancient Sais at the Feast of Lamps, For I'll be free and grope through mysteries While in the cottage Faustus was alone. In eagle-flight beyond the mortal ken. With an uneasy step he groped his way Into the chamber where his father died; The stranger took the script and said no word; The hoarse voice of the antique horologue But Faustus, waking from his wonder dreams, Called out the midnight hour. Like hell-bound Began to fear a weird solicitude. winds Sometimes he saw queer shadows floating by. Each stroke burst o'er his tempest-beaten soul. And would have ta'en his blood-sealed promise back; Fired with a flame of fever, his whole mind But no. The visitor turned to the door. Was filled with dreams delirious of his doom. And, as its hinges yielded at his hand. And at his heart he felt a fearful weight. Foiled Faustus saw his grinning face unmasked. The tightening grasp of some mysterious hand. O God! it was the Arch-fiend, not a man! His frightful shrieks aroused the neighborhood, And hissing flames burst from the groaning earth But no one dared to help the cursed man. As do\yn he sank 'midst curses from the cursed When morning dawned upon the mist-topped hills That wafted upwards on the winds of hell; The peasants sought the unfrequented place. And, like the mocking echo of the hills. And silently interred a bleeding corpse.... The distance rang with his triumphant voice: " I am a prophet from the evil world...." The whispering groves were dark and desolate; Forsaken was the necromancer's home, There Faustus lay outstretched upon the floor Weird tales were told of nightly visitors. Unconscious through affright, and ghastly pale, But no one mourned the strange magicians fate. 'Twould seem as though the stroke of Ukko's sword O tell me now, you who have heard my tale. Had dashed a marble column to the earth What true enjoyments don life's dreary night So dumb and cold and motionless was he. Without religion's brilliant Hesper-light? But, in a while, the mists moved from his eyes. What is a life that leads but to our doom— And through the glistening window-panes he saw A rocket's flash and then a deeper gloom. The ruby sun sink from the yellow sky. Grim Faustus fell, and with him fell, his works; For even rocks must fall into decay. 'Twas not the recollection of a dream. So is ambition crushed beyond its spheres; But the remembrance of realities Unblest is he who toils for vanity, That never after cea,sed to haunt his mind. And wouldencompass, with his finite mind. The autumn fled; the still, sad winter came. The infinite Creator's mysteries. With songs of sorrow sped-the seasons round. For him the melancholy autumn comes While Faustus dwelt in all his misery. When he must wither as the fallen leaves. He sought the merry comrades of his youth. And with him perish all his earthliness. But their enjoyments brought hini bitterness. • Ofttimes he wandered lonely in the vale, As to the churchyard praying peasants bore The body of a friend most dear to them. Notre Dame.'
