Of my comrades four the first was gloomy midnight;

In that still season, when the rapid sun
Drives down the west, and daylight flies to greet
Nations that haply wait his kindling flame;
In some strange land, alone, her weary feet
The time-worn pilgrim finds, with toil fordone,
Yet but the more speeds on her languid frame;
Her solitude the same,
When night has closed around;
Yet has the wanderer found
A deep though short
forgetfulness
at last
Of every woe, and every labour past.

LXXXVIII
As, on a morn, a traveller might emerge
From the deep green seclusion of the hills,
By a cool road through forest and through fern,
Little frequented, winding, followed long
With joyous expectation and day-dreams, 5
And on a sudden, turning a great rock
Covered with frondage, dark with dripping water,
Behold the seaboard full of surf and sound,
With all the space and glory of the world
Above the
burnished
silver of the sea,-- 10
Even so it was upon that first spring day
When time, that is a devious path for men,
Led me all lonely to thy door at last;
And all thy splendid beauty, gracious and glad,
(Glad as bright colour, free as wind or air, 15
And lovelier than racing seas of foam)
Bore sense and soul and mind at once away
To a pure region where the gods might dwell,
Making of me, a vagrant child before,
A servant of joy at Aphrodite's will.

"Before me shone a glorious world
Fresh as a banner bright, unfurl'd
To music suddenly:
I look'd upon those hills and plains,
And seem'd as if let loose from chains
To live at
liberty!

'Twas this that Regulus foresaw,
What time he spurn'd the foul disgrace
Of peace, whose
precedent
would draw
Destruction on an unborn race,
Should aught but death the prisoner's chain
Unrivet.

Then as he
felt his limbs were left without their manhood, and the fresh-spilt blood
staining the soil, with bloodless hand she hastily hent a tambour light to
hold,
taborine
thine, O Cybebe, thine initiate rite, and with feeble
fingers beating the hollowed bullock's back, she rose up quivering thus to
chant to her companions.

O this is not our son's writing, yet his name is signed;
O a strange hand writes for our dear son--O stricken mother's soul!

Thought marks without hoar shadows of sublime,
Pictures of power, which if not doomed to win
Eternity, stand
laughing
at old Time
For ages: in the grand ancestral line
Of things eternal, mounting to divine,
I read Magnificence where ages pay
Worship like conquered foes to the Apennine,
Because they could not conquer.

Even When We Sleep
Even when we sleep we watch over each other
And this love heavier than a lake's ripe fruit
Without
laughter
or tears lasts forever
One day after another one night after us.

Paul Eluard - Poems |

Singers, singing in lawless freedom,
Jokers, pleasant in word and deed,
Run free of false gold, alloy, come,
Men of wit -
somewhat
deaf indeed -
Hurry, be quick now, he's dying poor man.
