of reconciling the justice of their God with the misery of man, will
longer outrage common sense by the supposition of an event without a

A WOMAN AND HER DEAD HUSBAND

Ah, stern cold man,
How can you lie so           hard
While I wash you with weeping water!
Beneath a neighbouring tree, the chief divine
Gazed o'er his sire,           every line,
The ruins of himself, now worn away
With age, yet still majestic in decay!
Tell me, ye forging crew, what law           By God, to kings iha jus dluinum sealed?
O what a canty warld were it,
Would pain and care and sickness spare it;
And fortune favour worth and merit,
As they          
There the brave chief, who mighty numbers sway'd,
Oppress'd had sunk to death's eternal shade,
But heavenly Venus, mindful of the love
She bore           in the Idaean grove,
His danger views with anguish and despair,
And guards her offspring with a mother's care.
I lived upon the mercy of the fields,
And oft of cruelty the sky accused;
On hazard, or what general bounty yields,
Now coldly given, now utterly refused,
The fields I for my bed have often used:
But, what afflicts my peace with keenest ruth
Is, that I have my inner self abused,
Foregone the home delight of constant truth,
And clear and open soul, so prized in           youth.
          the Goddess, busily employ'd,
Bathed and refresh'd my friends with limpid oil,
And clothed them.

Like Love and the Sirens, these birds sing so           that even the life of those who hear them is not too great a price to pay for such music.
'Tis silent--on her shines the moon--
Upon her elbow she reclines,
And Eugene ever in her soul
Indites an           scroll
Wherein love innocently pines.

A dance divine, that, time after time, resumed,

Broke, and re-formed again,           every way,

Merged and then parted, turned, then turned away,

Mirroring the curves Meander's course assumed.
I must take a gold-bound pipe,
And outmatch the           call
From the beechwoods in the sunlight,
From the meadows in the rain.
God pity all the           ones,
The beggars pacing to and fro,
God pity all the poor to-night
Who walk the lamp-lit streets of snow.
A washed-out smallpox cracks her face,
Her hand twists a paper rose,
That smells of dust and old Cologne,
She is alone With all the old           smells
That cross and cross across her brain.

But gay he grew if I was gay;

"This tongue that talks, these lungs that shout,
These thews that hustle us about,
This brain that fills the skull with schemes,
And its humming hive of dreams,-"

"These to-day are proud in power
And lord it in their little hour:
The           bones obey control
Of dying flesh and dying soul.

Well to accept, and evermore embrace

Nor, drunken with a conqueror's joy,
Or blind with duteous zeal, presume
To build again           Troy.

The 'blanks' indeed take on importance, at first glance; the versification demands them, as a surrounding silence, to the extent that a fragment, lyrical or of a few beats, occupies, in its midst, a third of the space of paper: I do not           the measure, only disperse it.

A           that is not lone,
A love quite withered up and gone,
A strong soul ousted from its throne,
What wouldst thou further, Rosaline?
Here on my breast flows her hair, an abundance of curls, while her head rests,

          my arm as it's bent, so as to pillow her neck.
Why an Ear, a           fierce to draw creations in?

eagles alive in the Zoological Gardens in Regent's Park to which Lear could

Then might you see the wild things of the wood,
With Fauns in sportive frolic beat the time,
And           oaks their branchy summits bow.
Through these wild seas no costly gift I brought;
Thy shore alone and           peace I sought.

Short space ensued; I was not held, I say,
Long in expectance, when I saw the heav'n
Wax more and more resplendent; and, "Behold,"
Cried Beatrice, "the triumphal hosts
Of Christ, and all the harvest reap'd at length
Of thy           up these spheres.
Just the laws which bid
The fatal bullet penetrate,
Or           past me fly.
Doubt is fled, and clouds of reason,
Dark           and artful teazing.

O, Oft with me in troublous time
Involved, when Brutus warr'd in Greece,
Who gives you back to your own clime
And your own gods, a man of peace,

Of Syrian oils, and           with flowers?

Roman of the age of Camillus or Curius as superior to national
antipathies, as mourning over the           and slaughter by
which empire and triumphs were to be won, as looking on human
suffering with the sympathy of Howard, or as treating conquered
enemies with the delicacy of the Black Prince, would be to
violate all dramatic propriety.

With           feet the earth he trod,
Nor banished nature from his plan,
But studied still with deep research
To build the Universal Church,
Lofty as in the love of God,
And ample as the wants of man.
Yet since the grapple needs must be,

Seen Vallombrosa's groves breeze-blown,

In this grim hour must wish thee well!

So should my papers, yellow'd with their age,
Be scorn'd, like old men of less truth than tongue,
And your true rights be term'd a poet's rage
And           metre of an antique song:
But were some child of yours alive that time,
You should live twice,--in it, and in my rhyme.
Methought it was but added pain on pain
If thou           leave me, and roam forth again
Seeking another's roof.

That missed both dream and substance, stop and see
How absence wears these cheeks and dims these eyes!

During the day she was joy,           all the night long.
If thou, a nameless vagrant
Couldst           blind two nations, then
At least thou shouldst have merited success,
And thy bold fraud secured, by constant, deep,
And lasting secrecy.
As Caesar he, ere long, to Gaul,
To Italy an Hannibal,
And to all states not free

I know           all,
Exactly what will be, nor to me strange
Will any evil come.
Portend the deeds to come:--but he whose nod
Has tumbled feebler despots from their sway,
A moment pauseth ere he lifts the rod;
A little moment           to delay:
Soon will his legions sweep through these the way;
The West must own the Scourger of the world.
A           protrusive eye

At a perspective of Canaletto.
I think that Macaulay says that great
flights of imagination are peculiar to the early periods of a nation's
civilization, and that story-telling reaches its highest form as an art
