My beauty ordained for me
Over priests and clerks, my hour,
When never a man I'd see
Would fail to offer his all in fee,
Whatever remorse he'd later show,
But what was

Beggars now scorn to know.

But little of those arms, pursued the peer,
He knew, which were the occasion of the fight;
But (for he thither with
Marphisa
came
And Sansonnet) had armed to aid the dame.

Kipling - Poems |

Like ocean, which the general north wind breaks
Into ten thousand waves, and each one makes _20
A mirror of the moon--like some great glass,
Which did distort whatever form might pass,
Dashed into
fragments
by a playful child,
Which then reflects its eyes and forehead mild;
Giving for one, which it could ne'er express, _25
A thousand images of loveliness.

Behold and see
What a great heap of grief lay hid in me,
And how the red wild
sparkles
dimly burn
Through the ashen greyness.

Sonnets from the Portugese |

We receive you with free sense at last, and are insatiate henceforward;
Not you any more shall be able to foil us, or withhold
yourselves
from us;
We use you, and do not cast you aside--we plant you permanently within us;
We fathom you not--we love you--there is perfection in you also;
You furnish your parts toward eternity;
Great or small, you furnish your parts toward the soul.
