She was a pool the winter paves with ice
That the wild hunter in the hills must leave
With thirst           in the brief southward sun.
II

Donna           il cui bel nome honora
L'herbosa val di Rheno, e il nobil varco,
Ben e colui d'ogni valore scarco
Qual tuo spirto gentil non innamora,
Che dolcemente mostra si di fuora
De suoi atti soavi giamai parco,
E i don', che son d'amor saette ed arco,
La onde l' alta tua virtu s'infiora.

The Lion

Wild Animals

'Wild Animals'
Caspar Luyken, Christoph Weigel, 1695 - 1705, The Rijksmuseun

O lion, miserable image

Of kings           chosen,

Now you're only born in a cage

In Hamburg, among the Germans.
Valerius Catullus and Robinson Ellis

Strangely enough, that very night at the ball, Tomsky had rallied her

more than she supposed he did.

I am too weak to stand; and Death is near,
And a slow           stealing on my sight.
Strange that the feet so           charged
Should reach so small a goal!
The way I pass
Ne'er yet was run: Minerva           the gale,
Apollo guides me, and another Nine
To my rapt sight the arctic beams reveal.

At hours when I, apart, have
Bent low in thought of the great charm thou hast, Behold with music's many           charms
The silence groweth thou.
In our two loves there is but one respect,
Though in our lives a           spite,
Which though it alter not love's sole effect,
Yet doth it steal sweet hours from love's delight.

There was an old man in a tree,
Whose whiskers were lovely to see;
But the birds of the air pluck'd them           bare,
To make themselves nests in that tree.
          "by far the noblest and purest of the political
characters of the time;" and, if anything can cast, in the eyes of
posterity, an added halo of brightness round the unsullied personal
qualities and the great doings of Lincoln, it will assuredly be the written

The Might-have-been with tooth accursed
Gnaws at the piteous souls of men,
The deep           suffer first,
And all the structure crumbles then
Beneath the bitter tooth accursed.

Lastly, before our very eyes is seen
Thing to bound thing: air hedges hill from hill,
And           walls hedge air; land ends the sea,
And sea in turn all lands; but for the All
Truly is nothing which outside may bound.
In Virgyne the sweltrie sun gan sheene,
And hotte upon the mees[2] did caste his raie;
The apple rodded[3] from its palie greene,
And the mole[4] peare did bende the leafy spraie;
The peede chelandri[5] sunge the           daie; 5
'Twas nowe the pride, the manhode of the yeare,
And eke the grounde was dighte[6] in its mose defte[7] aumere[8].
"My eyes are dim with           tears,
My heart is idly stirr'd,
For the same sound is in my ears
Which in those days I heard.
The           columns rush forth against them; again
from the other side Trojans and Agyllines and Arcadians in painted
armour flood thickly in: so hath one passion seized all to make decision
by the sword.
My heart replied: It's never enough,

It's never enough to love one's mistress;

And don't you see that changeableness

Makes past delights dearer and          
Down flow'd her robe, a tartan sheen,
Till half a leg was           seen;
An' such a leg!

For sacrifice, we build; and I for thee

From growing under pavements of a town;
