t:i!iies,ue uVurc, with his kindly smile
aud lenjf white hair aud heard.
"And so tou would like to kuow
Boiiielhiu atnuit the Inspiration of
some of uiy poi'ins -w hat led uie to i
write them?" he said whcti we wert
senti-d. "Well, you are very Wind.
"I will tell tou tlrst how 1 came to
w-ile the "Piialiu of Life." 1 was a
yoimi; man then. I can recall the
time. It was a bright d.-iy. and the
trs were bKn'tnlnj;. aud I felt au lui-
ftilse to w rite out Uiy aim and purpoe
In tbe world. I wrote It for myself.
I diil not intend It for publication
Some month afterward I was asked
for a KH-iu by a opuliir magazine. I
nvalletl my Tsaim of Llfrt' I copied
It and sent It to the periodical. It saw
the li-lit. took wrings and Hew over th
world. There you may see It written
ou a Japanese servvn.'
He pointed to a hlnh. richly orna
mented s.reen which stoml In-fore a
Rreat tin-place. He added an anecdote
which I bare always regarded as a
true picture of his aoul:
"When I w as In Entjlund I w as hon
ored by receiving au Invitation from
the (jm-co. As l was leaving the pal
ace yard uiy carriage was hindered by
the crowd of vehicles. There came to
the d.xr of the coacli a noble looking
English wurktugman.
"'Are you Professor Longfellow? he
said.
"I bowed.
" 'May I ask, sir, If you w rote th
"Psalm of Life?'"
"I answered that I did.
" 'Would you be willing, lr, to taka
a wurklugmau by tbe baud?'
"I extended my baud to hlui. He
clasped It. and uevr In my life have I
received a compliment which gave uie
so much satisfaction.
"I wrote 'Excelalor,' " he continued,
"after receiving a letter full of lofty
sentiments from Charles Sumner at
Washington. In one of the sentence
oecurn-d the word 'excelsior.' As I
dropped the letter that word again
caught my eye. I turned over the let
ter and w rote uiy poem. I wrote the
"Wrei k of the Hesperus' because, after
reading au account of the Ions of a part
of the Gloucester fibbing fleet lu an
autumn atorm, I met the words 'Nor
man's woe.' I retired for the night aft
er reading the report of the disaster,
but the scene haunted me. I arose to
write, and the poem cauie to ine In
whole stanzas.
"The clock In the corner of the room,"
he went ou, "la not the oue to which I
refer in my 'Old Clock ou the Stair.'
That dock stood In the country hou
of my father In-law at PlttsQeld, among
the Berkshire hills."
The great clock In the room was beat
lug the air In the shadows as he spoke.
I could seem to hear It say:
"Toujour jamais!
Jamaia toujouri!"
It was these words by a French au
thor that hud suggested to hlui the
solemn refrain:
"Forever- never!
Never forever!''
"Excelsior" had been set to popular
niuulc by the Iiutchlusous wheu the
poet met oue evening the minstrel fam
ily after a concert lu ISostou Music
hall. "I have," he said, "another poem
which I will send to you." He did so.
It was the first copy of the "Old Clock
on the Stair." One of the family set
the word to music.
"My poem entitled 'The Uridge,' " he
said In efTect, "was written lu fwrrow,
which made me feel for the lonellneaa
of other. I was a widower at the
time, and I used to sometime go over
the bridge to Uostou evenings to meet
friends ajid to returu near midnight by
the same way. Tbe way wa silent
save here and there a belated footstep.
The sea rote and fell among the wood
en piers, arid there was a greut furnace
n the Brighton hills whose red light
was reflected by the wave. It wa on
luch a late, solitary walk that, the spir
it of the poem came upon me. Tbe
bridge ha been greatly altered, but
the place of It 1 the same." Ilezeklaa
