Pour ne pas oublier la chose capitale,
Nous avons vu partout, et sans l'avoir cherche,
Du haut jusques en bas de l'echelle fatale,
Le spectacle ennuyeux de l'immortel peche:
La femme, esclave vile, orgueilleuse et stupide,
Sans rire s'adorant et s'aimant sans degout:
L'homme, tyran goulu, paillard, dur et cupide,
Esclave de l'esclave et ruisseau dans l'egout;
Le bourreau qui jouit, le martyr qui sanglote;
La fete qu'assaisonne et parfume le sang;
Le poison du pouvoir enervant le despote,
Et le peuple amoureux du fouet abrutissant;
Plusieurs religions semblables a la notre,
Toutes escaladant le ciel; la Saintete,
Comme en un lit de plume un delicat se vautre,
Dans les clous et le crin cherchant la volupte;
L'Humanite bavarde, ivre de son genie,
Et, folle maintenant comme elle etait jadis,
Criant a Dieu, dans sa
furibonde
agonie:
<< O mon semblable, o mon maitre, je te maudis!

And up the sluice-cut, playing buccaneer
Among the minnows; lolling in hot sun
When bathing vagabonds had drest and done;
Rootling in salty flannel-weed for meal
And river shrimps, when hushed the trundling wheel;
Snapping the dapping moth, and with new wonder
Prowling through old drowned barges falling asunder.

As the good and gallant

shook and trembled;
A linen shirt so fine his frame invested,
O'er the shirt was drawn a bright pelisse of scarlet
The sleeves of that pelisse depended backward,
The lappets of its front were button'd backward,
And were spotted with the blood of unbelievers;
See the good and gallant stripling reeling goeth,
From his eyeballs hot and briny tears distilling;
On his bended bow his figure he supporteth,
Till his bended bow has lost its goodly gilding;
Not a single soul the stripling good encounter'd,
Till encounter'd he the mother dear who bore him:
O my boy, O my treasure, and my darling!
