                                            II。 



                                           AGE 

    Why did I build my cottage on a hill Facing the sea�拭�

    Why   did   I   plan   each   terraced   lawn   to   slope   Down   to   the   deep   blue 

billowy    breast   of  hope�察  �Surging   and   sweeping�察   �laughing    and   leaping�察�

Tumbling   its   garments   of   foam   upon   the   shore�察  �Rustling   the   sands   that 

know my step no more�察�I should have found a valley�察�deep and still�察�To 

shelter me。 

    There flows the river�察�and it seems asleep So far away�察�Yet I remember 

whip of wave and roar Of wind that rose and smote against the oar�察�Smote 

and   retreated�察  �Proud   but   defeated�察  �While   I   rejoiced   and   rowed   into   the 

brine�察�Drawing on wet and heavy ´straining line The great cod quivering 

from the deep As counterplay。

    What is the solace of these hills and vales That rise and fall�拭�What is 

there   glorious   in   the   greenwood   glen�察  �Or   twittering   thrush   or   wing   of 

darting wren�拭�Give me the gusty�察�Raucous and rusty Call of the sea gull in 

the echoing sky�察�The wild shriek of the winds that cannot die�察�Give me the 

life that follows the bending sails�察�Or none at all� �

         A BANQUET ONE MEMORY 

                   FROM SOCRATES 



    AFTER the song the love�察�and after the love the play�察�Flute girl and 

pretty boy blowing Bubbles of sparkling Wine into darkling Beards of a 

former austerity�察�stern even now�察�but Fast growing Foolish�察�with less of a 

stately Reserve that held them sedately。 Oh Zeus�察�what a sight� �With the 

wine dripping off it�察�The grin of an ass on a bald´pated prophet。 

    After   the  feast  the  night�察 �and  after  the  night  the  day�察 �Fool  and 

philosopher stirring With the day dawning�察�Stretching and yawning�察�While 

in each wine´throbbing�察�desolated brain is the Wheeling and whirring Of 

thousands of bats�察�that the slaking Of throats will not hinder from aching�察�

No wine for the brow that is beating to bursting�察�But water at morning is 

quench for the thirsting� �

                                           SONG 



     OUT of   one heart   the birds   and   I   together�察 �Earth hushed in twilight�察�

Low through the live´oaks hung heavy with silver�察�Gemmed with the sky´ 

light�察�Under the great wet star Shaking with light�察�we jar Lute´voiced the 

silence with intervaled music。 

     While under the margined world the slow sun lingers�察�Flaming earth's 

portal�察  �Over   the   lilac   dusk   spreads   his   great   fingers´   Earth   is   immortal� �

While   the   frail   beauty   dies。   Dream   in   the   dreamer's   eyes�察�All   the   good 

gladness turns praise for the singers。 

     Hark�察�'tis the breath of life�      �Hush� �and I need it�察�Northern�察�gigantic�察� 

Questing the silences�察�herding the sudden foam Down the Atlantic�察�Leaves 

from the   autumn's   store   Shrill   at   my  desert   door�察�They  and   I   out   of one 

heart that is grieving。

                           THE WORLDS 



    I SAW an idler on a summer day Piping with Iris by a dancing brook�察�

And all his world was rife with Pleasures gay�察�And languid Follies smiled 

from every nook。 

    I   saw   an   artist   in   a   world   of   dreams�察  �His   rainbow   rising   from   his 

radiant   task�察 �To   throw   its  magic  prism   beams    O'er  Fancy's    changeful 

masque and counter´ masque。 

    I saw Toilstooping underneath   a world Whereon his   foster´brothers 

lighter   tread�察 �His  skyward    pinions   ever   closer  furled  Before    the  grim 

necessity of bread� �

       I saw a sinner   working hard to be Worthy his death´wage from  the 

mint of time�察�I saw a sailor�察�unto whom the sea Was hearth and hope and 

love and wedding´ chime。 

    I   saw   a   mother   living   in   her   child   I   saw   a   saint   among   his   fellow 

men     Brave    soldiery   before   my    eyes   defiled   And    solemn´hearted 

scholarsSudden then 

    I cried�此 �The stars are no less neighborly In their ethereal remoteness 

swung�察�Than these near human orbits wherein we Live out our lives and 

speak our chosen tongue� �

       ;Love seek through allless there be one Least soul unlit within the 

night And over all�察�the selfsame sun Give each creation light� ─�

                               THE RIOT 



    YOU may think my life is quiet。 I find it full of change�察�An ever´varied 

diet�察�As piquant as 'tis strange。 

    Wild   thoughts   are   always   flying�察  �Like   sparks   across   my   brain�察  �Now 

flashing out�察�now dying�察�To kindle soon again。 

    Fine   fancies   set   me   thrilling�察 �And   subtle   monsters   creep   Before   my 

sight unwilling�此�They even haunt my sleep。 

    One broad�察�perpetual riot Enfolds me night and day。 You think my life 

is quiet�拭�You don't know what you say。

                                       HUNGER 



    I'VE   been   a   hopeless   sinner�察  �but   I   understand   a   saint�察 �Their   bend   of 

weary knees and their con´ tortions long and faint�察�And the endless pricks 

of conscience�察�like a hundred thousand pins�察�A real perpetual penance for 

imaginary sins。 

    I love to wander widely�察�but I understand a cell�察�Where you tell and tell 

your beads because you've nothing else to tell�察�Where the crimson joy of 

flesh�察�with all its wild fantastic tricks�察�Is forgotten in the blinding glory of 

the crucifix。 

    I cannot speak for others�察�but my inmost soul is torn With a battle of 

desires   making   all   my   life   forlorn。   There   are   moments   when   I   would 

untread the paths that I have trod。 I'm a haunter of the devil�察�but I hunger 

after God。

                                EXIT GOD 



    Of old our father's God was real�察�Something they almost saw�察�Which 

kept them to a stern ideal And scourged them into awe。 

    They  walked   the narrow   path   of   right   Most   vigilantly  well�察  �Because 

they feared eternal night And boiling depths of Hell。 

    Now Hell has wholly boiled away And God become a shade。 There is 

no place for him to stay In all the world He made。 

    The followers of William James Still let the Lord exist�察�And call Him 

by  imposing   names�察�A  venerable   list。   But   nerve   and   muscle   only   count�察�

Gray   matter   of   the   brain�察  �And   an   astonishing   amount   Of   inconvenient 

pain。 

    I sometimes wish that God were back In this dark world and wide�察�For 

though sonic virtues He might lack�察�He had his pleasant side。

    THAT   odd�察  �fantastic   ass�察  �Rousseau�察  �Declared   himself   unique。   How 

men persist in doing so�察�Puzzles me more than Greek。
