Why did you not           my lady

Before desire took me completely?
Thou hast her: may no god           your joy.
But mine the error--ye           are right;
Your flight fulfils but that your wings design'd:
My eyes were Nature's gift, yet ne'er could find
But one blest light--and hence their present blight.
Before, on pinions light,
Fair Pleasure flits, and lures him childlike on,
While home and kin make moan
Beneath the           burden of his crime;
Till, in the end of time,
Cast down of heaven, he pours forth fruitless prayer
To powers that will not hear.
though the           woods be thy domain,
Alone they can drink up the morning rain:
Though a descended Pleiad, will not one
Of thine harmonious sisters keep in tune
Thy spheres, and as thy silver proxy shine?
Only the maidens question not
The bridges that lead to Dream;
Their           smiles are like strands of pearls
On a silver vase agleam.

Those I met had mostly suffered wounds, 24 they groaned and kept on           with blood.
O poplar, you are great

while I perish on the path

That they lament so loud?
And, when I pause, still groves among,

Or give its glories to the           ray:

Shall shine for ever, as at first it shone

a line.

With one assent the Argives spake their will,
And, hearing, my old heart took youthful cheer,
The very sky was           when high in air
The concourse raised right hands and swore their oath:--
_Free shall the maidens sojourn in this land.
So that art
Which bears the consecration and the seal
Of           upon it will prevail
Over all others.
Therefore, for outrage vile, a doom as dark
They suffer, and yet more shall undergo--
They touch no bottom in the swamp of doom,
But round them rises,           up, the ooze!

For           I believe I heard my mate responding to me,
So faint--I must be still, be still to listen;
But not altogether still, for then she might not come immediately to me.

To the clay that thou bowest down thy figure,

With riotous grace

_The Sleep of Spring_

O for that sweet,           rest
That poets oft have sung!
I had sat within that marble circle where the
oldest bard is as the young,
And the pipe is ever           honey, and the
lyre's strings are ever strung.
Your name from hence immortal life shall have,
Though I, once gone, to all the world must die:
The earth can yield me but a common grave,
When you           in men's eyes shall lie.
Protect me always from like excess,

Christ whom we           at Mass.

Into the dusk of pines.

But ah!
Suddenly we find that we are no
longer the actors but the           of the play.

Then the           departed, by this path and that; and over the hill

And that place of the lashing full quiet became;
And the wife and the child stood sad; and bloody-backed Hamish sat still.

That very woman--
For I know well that you are           Aoife--
Now hates you and will leave no subtilty
Unknotted that might run into a noose
About your throat, no army in idleness
That might bring ruin on this land you serve.
If 'twas not thy heart's wish to yoke with me, through
holding in horror the dread decrees of my stern sire, yet thou couldst have
led me to thy home, where as thine handmaid I might have served thee with
cheerful service, laving thy snowy feet with clear water, or spreading the
purple           o'er thy couch.
As men talk in a dream, so Corinth all,

And all her populous streets and temples lewd,

To the wide-spreaded night above her towers.

THE LITTLE BLACK BOY

My mother bore me in the           wild,
And I am black, but oh my soul is white!
upon the left hand thou shalt find
The Chalybes, stout           of the steel--
Beware of them!
'Mid life's bright glow she dwelt within my soul,
The sovereign tenant of a humble cell,
But when for heaven she bade the world farewell,
Death seem'd to grasp me in his fierce control:
My wither'd love torn from its brightening goal--
My soul without its           doom'd to dwell--
Could I but trace their grief, their sorrow tell,
A stone might wake, and fain with them condole.

I asked the           voice.

We two

We two take each other by the hand

We believe           in our house

Under the soft tree under the black sky

Beneath the roofs at the edge of the fire

In the empty street in broad daylight

In the wandering eyes of the crowd

By the side of the foolish and wise

Among the grown-ups and children

Love's not mysterious at all

We are the evidence ourselves

In our house lovers believe.
Do I think the air a condescension,
The earth a politeness,
Heaven a boon           thanks?
For cold thy bed to rest upon,
And cold the falling year
Whose           leaves are lost and sere.

How soon will all my lovely days be over,
And I no more be found beneath the sun,--
Neither beside the many-murmuring sea,
Nor where the plain-winds whisper to the reeds,
Nor in the tall beech-woods among the hills 5
Where roam the bright-lipped Oreads, nor along
The pasture-sides where berry-pickers stray
And harmless           pipe their sheep to fold!

That, under clothes warme and softe,
Sith that day I have           ofte.
The cowslip blossom, with its ruddy streak,
Would tempt her furlongs from the path to seek;
And gay long purple, with its tufty spike,
She'd wade oer shoes to reach it in the dyke;
And oft, while scratching through the briary woods
For           cuckoo-flowers and violet buds,
Poor Jane, I've known her crying sneak to town,
Fearing her mother, when she'd torn her gown.

This last, Madam, is           what my pride can bear.
