    Each star to numberless planets gives light and motion and heat�察�But 

you enmantle them all�察�the nearest and most remote�察�And the lustres of all 

the   suns   are   but   spangles   under   your   feet�察�   Mere   bubbles   and   beads   of 

noon�察�they circle and shine and float。

    I WALKED with poets in my youth�察�Because the world they drew Was 

beautiful and glorious Beyond the world I knew。 

    The poets are my comrades still�察�But dearer than in youth�察�For now I 

know that they alone Picture the world of truth。

              THERE WHERE THE SEA 



     THERE where the sea enwrapt A strip of land and wind´swept dune�察�

Where   nature   was   quiescent   in   the   glimmering        Noonday   sun   of   early 

June�察�The Placid sea lay shimmering In a mist of blue�察 �From which the 

sky   now   drew   Its   wealth   of   hue   and   colour�察  �One   heard   but   the   deep 

breathing   of   the   ocean�察  �As   it   breathed   along   the   shore   in   even   motion。 

Among the pines and listless of the scene�察�Atthis and Alcaeus lay�察�Within 

the heart of each a hunger For the unknown gift of life。 Here from day to 

day They met and dreamed away The soft unfloding days of spring�察�Now 

turning to the summer。 

     Aleaeus�此�

     I am faint with all the fire In my blood�察�And I would plunge into the 

quiet blue And lose all sense of time and you。 

     Atthis�此�

     I�察�too�察�would plunge And swim with you� �

     Doffing   her   robe�察  �the   maid   stood   in   her   beauty�察  �Calm   and   sure   and 

unafraid�察   �The    sinuous    splendour    of   her  limbs�察  �A   silent  symphony      of 

curving line�察�Which reached its final note In breast and rounded throat。 He 

had   not   known   that   flesh   could   be   so   fair�察  �Each   movement   which   she 

made   Wove   o'er   his   sense   a   deeper   spell�察  �Her   beauty   swept   him   like   a 

flame And caught him unaware。 She looked into his eyes�察�then dropping 

hers    Before    that   burning    gaze�察  �Softly    turned   and    crept   with   sunlit 

shoulders      Down     among     the  boulders�察   �To   the   sea。  Secure     within   its 

covering depth She called to him to follow。 She led him out along the tide�察�

With     swift  unerring    stroke�察  �Nor   paused    till  he  was   at  her  side。  With 

conquering arm He seized her and from her brow Tossed back the dripping 

locks�察�and sought her lips´ Her eyes closed�察�As all her body yielded to his 

kiss。   Then   home   he   bore   her   to   the   shore�察  �Within   his   heart   a   song   of 

triumph�察  �In    hers�察  �a   new´born   joy   of   womanhood。   So      spring   for  them 

passed on to summer。

                            MARRIAGE 



    YOU�察�who have given me your name�察�And with your laws have made 

me wife�察�To share your failures and your fame�察�Whose word has made me 

yours for life。 

    What proof have you that you hold me�拭�That in reality I'm one With 

you�察�through all eternity�拭�What proof when all is said and done�拭�

    In spite of all the laws you've made�察�I'm free。 I am no part of you。 But 

wait´the last word is not said�察�You're mine�察�for I'm myself and you。 

    All through my veins there flows your blood�察�In you there is no part of 

me。 By virtue of my motherhood Through me you live eternally。

                                         PITY 



    Oh do not Pity me because I gave My heart when lovely April with a 

gust�察�Swept down the singing lanes with a cool wave�察�And do not pity me 

because   I   thrust Aside   your   love   that   once   burned   as   a   flame。   I   was   as 

thirsty as a windy flower That bares its bosom to the summer shower And 

to the unremembered winds that came。 Pity me most for moments yet to 

be�察�In the far years�察�when some day I shall turn Toward this strong path up 

to our little door And find it barred to all my ecstasy。 No sound of your 

warm voice the winds have borne´ Only the crying sea upon the shore。

             A ROSE TO THE LIVING 



    A ROSE to the living is more Than sumptuous wreaths to the dead�察�In 

filling love's infinite store�察�A rose to the living is more�察�If graciously given 

before   The   hungering   spirit   is   fled�察�  A  rose   to   the   living   is   more   Than 

sumptuous wreaths to the dead。

                           THE STORM 



    SHE   reached   for   sunset   fires�察�And   lived   with   stars   and   the   sea�察  �The 

mountains for her temple�察�The storm for priest had she。 

    Together a libation They poured to the God she knew�察�Such wine as 

ageless heavens And lonely wisdom brew。 

    Now she has done with worship�察�For her all rites are the same�察�Yet the 

storm keeps green forever The moss upon her name。

                WHERE THEY SLEEP 



    THE fog inrolling�察�dark and still Lies deep upon the crowded dead As 

flooding sea upon the sands�察�And quenches starlight overhead。 

    Long have they slept。 Their separate dust Has mingled with a nameless 

mould。 Only the slower´crumbling stones Still tell so much as may be told。 

    And now in shoreless fog adrift Like some lone mariner gliding by�察�I 

lean above the drowning graves And wonder when I too shall lie 

    Where evermore the tides of night And earth will hide my lonely rest�察�

And Time will bid my love forget To read the stone upon my breast。

    NOT  flesh   alone   am  I�察  �when   I   can   be   So   swiftly  caught   in   Beauty's 

shimmering thread Whose slender fibres�察�woven�察�held by  me�察�With their 

frail strength my following heart have led。 

    Yea�察�not   all   mortal�察 �not   all death   my   mind�察�When�察 �watching by  lone 

twilight waters' brim I tremblingly decipher�察�as they wind�察�Her deathless 

hieroglyphs�察�though strange and dim。 

     So for   this   faith�察 �when Thou   my  dust shalt  bring To   dust�察 �remember 

well�察�Great Alchemist�察�Yearly to change my wintry earth to spring�察�That I 

with Beauty still may keep my tryst。

                               COMRADES 



     WHERE are the friends that I knew in my Maying�察�In the days of my 

youth�察�in the first of my roaming�拭�We were dear�察�we were leal�察�O�察�far we 

went straying�察�Now never a heart to my heart comes homing� �Where is 

he now�察�the dark boy slender Who taught me bare´back�察�stirrup and reins�拭�

I love him�察�he loved me�察�my beautiful�察�tender Tamer of horses on grass´ 

grown plains。 

     Where is he now whose eyes swam brighter�察�Softer than love�察�in his 

turbulent charms�察�Who taught me to strike�察�and to fall�察�dear fighter�察�And 

gather me up in his boyhood arms�察�Taught me the rifle�察�and with me went 

riding�察  �Suppled   my   limbs   to   the   horseman's   war�察  �Where   is   he   now�察  �for 

whom my heart's biding�察�Biding�察�bidingbut he rides far� �

     O love that passes the love of woman� �Who that hath felt it shall ever 

forget When the breath of life with a throb turns human�察�And a lad's heart 

is to a lad's heart set�拭�Ever�察�forever�察�lover and rover They shall cling�察�nor 

each from other shall part Till the reign of the stars in the heavens be 'over�察�

And life is dust in each faithful heart。 

     They are dead�察�the American grasses under�察�There is no one now who 

presses my side�察�By the African chotts I am riding asunder�察�And with great 

joy   ride  I  the  last  great  ride。  I  am  fey�察  �I  am  fein  of  sudden    dying�察�

Thousands of miles there is no one near�察�And my heartall the night it is 

crying�察�crying In the bosoms of dead lads darling´dear。 

     Hearts of my musicthem dark earth covers�察�Comrades to die�察�and to 

die for�察�were they�察�In the width of the world there were no such rovers 

Back to back�察�breast to breast�察�it was ours to stay�察�And the highest on earth 

was the vow that we cherished�察�To spur forth from the crowd and come 

back never more�察�And to ride in the track of great souls perished Till the 

nests of the lark shall roof us o'er。 

     Yet lingers a horseman on Altai highlands�察�Who hath joy of me�察�riding 

the Tartar glissade�察�And one�察�far faring o'er orient islands Whose blood yet 

glints   with   my   blade's   accolade�察  �North�察  �west�察  �east�察  �I   fling   you   my   last 

hallooing�察�Last love to the breasts where my own has bled�察�Through the 

reach of the desert my soul leaps pursuing My star where it rises a Star of
