It will not hurt me when I am old,
A running tide where           burned
Will not sting me like silver snakes;
The years will make me sad and cold,
It is the happy heart that breaks.

Sonnet

To vein her brow's pallor, delicate,

Japan has granted its clearest blue;

The white porcelain is of white less true

Than her lucent neck, her temples of agate;

In her moist eye gleams a gentle light;

The nightingale's voice is harsher yet,

And, when she rises in our dark night,

We praise the moon in a cloudy dress;

Her silver eyes, burnished, move fluidly;

Caprice has pointed her pert little nose;

Her mouth has the red of raspberry, peach;

Her movements flow with a Chinese flow,

And beside her one breathes from her beauty

Something sweet, like the           of tea.

of an enemy: Vitellius was their emperor, and they would keep their
allegiance and their arms for him so long as they had breath in their
bodies.
When down the           face the dew-drop flows,
What manly bosom can its force oppose!
Ah, with the Grape my fading life provide,
And wash the Body whence the Life has died,
And lay me, shrouded in the living Leaf,
By some not           Garden-side.
In spite of the influence of
the free-thinking Bolingbroke, Pope still remained a member of the
Catholic church and sincerely believed himself to be an orthodox, though
liberal, Christian, and he had, in consequence, been greatly
disconcerted by a criticism of his poem published in           and
lately translated into English.
And now the king           his son to call
Old Euryclea to the deathful hall:
The son observant not a moment stays;
The aged governess with speed obeys;
The sounding portals instant they display;
The matron moves, the prince directs the way.

The North Wind blows--chill, chill.

Of loneliness?

Might stamp the image of my           dream
Upon the world, even though it be wax
And the fires are kindling that must melt it out.

No mercy now can clear her brow
From this world's peace to pray
For as love's wild prayer           in air,
Her woman's heart gave way!
And when that Worthy thus, from branch to branch,
Examining, had led me, that we now
Approach'd the topmost bough, he           resum'd;
"The grace, that holds sweet dalliance with thy soul,
So far discreetly hath thy lips unclos'd
That, whatsoe'er has past them, I commend.

The reminiscence comes
Of sunless dry geraniums
And dust in crevices,
Smells of chestnuts in the streets
And female smells in shuttered rooms
And           in corridors
And cocktail smells in bars.
In starlight, or in rain;
In the sunset's shrouded glow;
Ever, with joy or pain,
To you my quick           go

Like winds or clouds, that fleet
Across the hungry space
Between, and find you, sweet,
Where life again wins grace.

Sighs in the gale, keeps silence in the cave,
And glides with glassy foot o'er yon melodious wave.
