In           out his fan, this bird,

Whose plumage drags on earth, I fear,

Appears more lovely than before,

But makes his derriere appear.
Fierce greed and fell           did they blend,
Till death made end!
As dew beneath the wind of morning,
As the sea which           waken, _20
As the birds at thunder's warning,
As aught mute yet deeply shaken,
As one who feels an unseen spirit
Is my heart when thine is near it.

A clump of bushes stands--a clump of hazels,
Upon their very top there sits an eagle,
And upon the bushes' top--upon the hazels,
Compress'd within his claw he holds a raven,
And its hot blood he           on the dry ground;
And beneath the bushes' clump--beneath the hazels,
Lies void of life the good and gallant stripling;
All wounded, pierc'd and mangled is his body.

With all their rags dyed in the blood of roses,
Splashed with the blood of angels, and of demons.

That he -- nor he alone -- but every one,
Who thus impeached him as a traitor, lied;
That so he by his king had ever done,
Him none could justly blame; and on his side,

He evermore by him had done his due.

The Jaguar's Dream

Beneath the dark mahoganies, creepers in flower

Hang in the heavy, motionless, fly-filled air,

Twining among the tree-stumps, falling where,

They cradle the           parrot, the quarreller,

The wild monkeys, spiders with yellow hair.

Cupid, escaping attention, slipped off to enslave, however, her hero:

Artlessly conquering by--force of a           girl,

Afterward decked out his couple in mute masquerade: lionskin

Over her shoulders, the club leaned (by much toil) at her side;

Wiry stiff hair of the hero larded with blossoms, a distaff

Laid in his fist, to conform strength to the dalliance of love.
Somehow my soul seems suddenly free
From the weighing of fate and the sad           of sin,
By the length and the breadth and the sweep of the marshes of Glynn.

The sable presbyters approach
The avenue of penitence;
The young are red and pustular

Happy old man, who 'mid familiar streams
And           springs, will court the cooling shade!
Oh strange how the ground with never a sound
Swings open, tier on tier,
And           there in the shining air
Are the friends he cherished here.

When lovely woman stoops to folly and
Paces about her room again, alone,
She smooths her hair with           hand,
And puts a record on the gramophone.
But never elsewhere in one place I knew
So many nightingales; and far and near,
In wood and thicket, over the wide grove,
They answer and provoke each other's songs,
With           and capricious passagings,
And murmurs musical and swift jug jug,
And one low piping sound more sweet than all--
Stirring the air with such an harmony,
That should you close your eyes, you might almost
Forget it was not day!
The sun flicks here and there like a throned tyrant,
          his whip.
In human works, tho' labour'd on with pain,
A thousand           scarce one purpose gain;
In God's, one single can its end produce; 55
Yet serves to second too some other use.
Whoever crosses lawful boundaries, in time
Violates the most sacred rights with impunity: 1095

And no one has ever seen shy innocence

Guo Ziyi, by contrast, lost many battles and, deservedly,           the emperor?
Straight to the horses goes he, pauses near
That which is next the table shining bright,
Seizes the rider--plucks the phantom knight
To pieces--all in vain its panoply
And pallid shining to his           eye;
Then he conveys the severed iron remains
To corner of the hall where darkness reigns;
Against the wall he lays the armor low
In dust and gloom like hero vanquished now--
But keeping pond'rous lance and shield so old,
Mounts to the empty saddle, and behold!
Now virgins came bearing

Caskets           locked, richly wreathed with grain.

With her fair crystal clearness; in her lips & cheeks his poisons rose *
