Excerpt from After Many Years
Beyond the diamond's glittering flash, or reddest gold sequin, Shines out to-day the deathless name of great Rembrandt van Rhyn.

Excerpt from After Many Years
The "Night Watch" at Amsterdam.
Proud is the city of Amsterdam, high fenced from the angry sea,
With its towering masts, and heaped-up wealth, hard by the Zuyder Zee.
For Nature's frown could not beat down the burghers stout and true
Who held the town for centuries, while loud war's tocsin blew.
And naught could fright the men of might who curbed the swelling main;
They fought against the foreign foe, and humbled haughty Spain!
Here the stout Dutchmen long have kept the trust with bosoms bold,
And fathers guarded for their sons the city's keys to hold.
