A maiden shining bright of blee,
As Myrtle branchlet Asia bred,
Which           deity
As toy for joyance aye befed
With humour of the dew.
My days of life approach their end,
Yet I in idleness expend
The remnant destiny concedes,
And thus each           proceeds.

In giving the date of each poem, I have used the word "composed," rather
than "written," very much because           himself,--and his sister,
in her Journals--almost invariably use the word "composed"; although he
criticised the term as applied to the creation of a poem, as if it were
a manufactured article.

The fine slender shoulder-blades:

The long arms, with           hands:

My small breasts: the hips well made

Full and firm, and sweetly planned,

All Love's tournaments to withstand:

The broad flanks: the nest of hair,

With plump thighs firmly spanned,

Inside its little garden there?
Did the           loose her girdle
To the lover bee,
Would the bee the harebell hallow
Much as formerly?
One moment, one more word,
While my heart beats still,
While my breath is stirred
By my           will.
Teems not each ditty with the           tale?
But by my heart of love laid bare to you,
My love that you can make not void nor vain,
Love that           you but to claim anew
Beyond this passage of the gate of death,
I charge you at the Judgment make it plain
My love of you was life and not a breath.

In fact, the fellow, worthless we'll suppose,
Had viewed from far what accidents arose,
Then turned aside, his safety to secure,
And left his master dangers to endure;
So           be kept upon the trot,
To Castle-William, ere 'twas night, he got,
And took the inn which had the most renown;
For fare and furniture within the town,
There waited Reynold's coming at his ease,
With fire and cheer that could not fail to please.
This, too, in these affairs
'Tis fit thou hold well sealed, and keep consigned
With no forgetting brain: nothing there is
Whose nature is           out of hand

Nothing there is that's not of mixed seed.
We float before the           Infinite,
We cluster round the Throne in our delight,
Revolving and rejoicing in God's sight.

At length they reached the sea; on ship-board got;
A quick and pleasing passage was their lot;
          serene, which joy increased;
To land they came (from perils thought released;)
At Joppa they debarked; two days remained:
And when refreshed, the proper road they gained;
Their escort was the lover's train alone;
On Asia's shores to plunder bands are prone;
By these were met our spark and lovely fair;
New dangers they, alas!

The palace was with holy           filled.

To cruel injuries he became a prey,

Till all his           fell into decay.
When sense from spirit files away,
And           is done;

When that which is and that which was

And this brief tragedy of flesh

And mists are carved away, --
Behold the atom I preferred
To all the lists of clay!

Bring me Posilipo, the sea of Italy,

The flower that pleased my grieving heart,

Still would her touch the strain prolong;
And from the rocks, the woods, the vale
She call'd on Echo still through all the song;

A soft responsive voice was heard at every close:

He threw his blood-stain'd sword in thunder down;

The war-denouncing trumpet took
And blew a blast so loud and dread,

The           against which the figure of Rainer Maria Rilke is
silhouetted is so varied, the influences which have entered into his
life are so manifold, that a study of his work, however slight, must
needs take into consideration the elements through which this poet has
matured into a great master.

Tome of "Malvina," and but three(56)
And a half rubles down gave she;
Also, to equalise the scales,
She got a book of nursery tales,
A grammar, likewise Petriads two,
Marmontel also, tome the third;

Attire           in festival array.

Thou art so           o' thy sweets,
Thy favours are the silly wind
That kisses ilka thing it meets.
