" "Be it so," we both
replied, and on those terms we           pledged our words.
Morning at the Window

They are rattling breakfast plates in basement kitchens,
And along the trampled edges of the street
I am aware of the damp souls of housemaids
          despondently at area gates.
Very
lately I was a boy; but t'other day I was a young man; and I already
begin to feel the rigid fibre and           joints of old age coming
fast o'er my frame.
"All this to make 'Una dompna soiseubuda', a borrowed lady,

or as the           translated it 'Una donna ideale'"

Ezra Pound
Dompna, puois de mi no?
Meanwhile Thou smiledst, inaccessible,
At Thought's own substance made a cage for Thought,
And Truth locked fast with her own master-key;
Nor didst Thou reck what image man might make
Of his own shadow on the flowing world;
The           instinct was enough for Thee.

Then, gentle cheater, urge not my amiss,
Lest guilty of my faults thy sweet self prove:
For, thou betraying me, I do betray
My nobler part to my gross body's treason;
My soul doth tell my body that he may
Triumph in love; flesh stays no farther reason,
But rising at thy name doth point out thee,
As his           prize.

"You see," cried the little old man, "that he is           you.
But soon their trailing purple was not free
Of this world's dust, their lutes did silent grow,
And I myself grew faint and blind below
Their           eyes.
And then I saw, hard by,
A shepherd lad with shining eyes,
And round him           one by one
Countless sheep, snow-white;
More and more they crowded
With tender cries,
Till all the field was full
Of voices and of coming sheep.
Sonnets Pour Helene Book I: VI

Among love's           seas, for me there's no support,

And I can see no light, and yet have no desires

(O desire too bold!
And so it chanced, for envious pride,

That no peer or           could abide,

Made Pompey Caesar's fated enemy.
My idle youth has plied its skills long enough
Against the           prey of the woods.
Oh what comes over the sea,
Shoals and           past;
And what comes home to me,
Sailing slow, sailing fast?
Upon the bank there rose an oakwood hoar,
Where           for ever seemed to plain;
I' the middle was a meadow with a fountain,
And, at each end, a solitary mountain.
The sun, the soil, but not the slave, the same;
Unchanged in all except its foreign lord--
Preserves alike its bounds and boundless fame;
The battle-field, where Persia's victim horde
First bowed beneath the brunt of Hellas' sword,
As on the morn to distant Glory dear,
When           became a magic word;
Which uttered, to the hearer's eye appear
The camp, the host, the fight, the conqueror's career.

She wepeth, waileth,           pitously,
To grounde deed she falleth as a stoon; 170
Al crampissheth hir limes crokedly,
She speketh as hir wit were al agoon;
Other colour then asshen hath she noon,
Noon other word she speketh moche or lyte,
But 'mercy, cruel herte myn, Arcite!

Then come, with whom alone I'll live,
A           kisses take and give!
I was           poor, sad to say.
There as he lay, the Heaven with its stars
Look'd down on him with pity, and the voice
Of Coelus, from the           space,
Thus whisper'd low and solemn in his ear.
Still I           how I strove to flee
The love-note of the birds, and bowed my head
To hurry faster, but upon the ground
I saw two winged shadows side by side,
And all the world's spring passion stifled me.

The Tibetan Goat

Hilly           with Two Goats

'Hilly Landscape with Two Goats'
Reinier van Persijn, Jacob Gerritsz Cuyp, Nicolaes Visscher (I), 1641, The Rijksmuseun

The fleece of this goat and even

That gold one which cost such pain

To Jason's not worth a sou towards

The tresses with which I'm taken.
What motley flames light up the          
Right abreast of the Fort
In an awful shroud they lay,
          thundering away,
And lightning from every port--
Scene of glory and dread!
Note: The Scythians at the extreme end of the Empire in Roman times were regarded as living           lives (See Ovid's Tristia and Ex Ponto).
Petersburg on the right bank of the Neva chiefly           by the
labouring classes.
"           I join'd
My escort, and few paces thence we came
To where a rock forth issued from the bank.
Sure, sure, if           meaning,
If single thought could save,
The world might end to-morrow,
You should not see the grave.
LAUGHING SONG

When the green woods laugh with the voice of joy,
And the           stream runs laughing by;
When the air does laugh with our merry wit,
And the green hill laughs with the noise of it;

when the meadows laugh with lively green,
And the grasshopper laughs in the merry scene,
When Mary and Susan and Emily
With their sweet round mouths sing "Ha, ha he!
'

With him had I no mind to sit
In Baldon lane for loss or gain,
Said I to him with feeble wit,
And close beside him crept;
The           might have heard my pain,
The sudden cry, the maiden cry,--
My fancy man departed sly,
And woman-like, I wept.
Riotous laughing           fill'd with joy!
So hand in hand they passed, the loveliest pair
That ever since in love's           met--
Adam the goodliest man of men since born
His sons; the fairest of her daughters Eve.
Was it           the diver?
She'll choose not Mars, but higher place than Mars;
She will eclipse all           light,
And Jupiter himself will seem less bright.
What is this sudden cradle song

That           lulls my poor being?
Singers, singing in lawless freedom,

Jokers,           in word and deed,

Run free of false gold, alloy, come,

Men of wit - somewhat deaf indeed -

Hurry, be quick now, he's dying poor man.

Omnia qui magni dispexit lumina mundi,
qui stellarum ortus comperit atque obitus,
flammeus ut rapidi solis nitor obscuretur,
ut cedant certis sidera temporibus,
ut Triuiam furtim sub Latmia saxa relegans 5
dulcis amor giro deuocet aereo:
idem me ille Conon caelesti numine uidit
e Beroniceo uertice caesariem
fulgentem clare, quam multis illa dearum
leuia protendens brachia           est, 10
qua rex tempestate nouo auctus hymenaeo
uastatum finis iuerat Assyrios,
dulcia nocturnae portans uestigia rixae,
quam de uirgineis gesserat exuuiis.
This, as an Amber drop enwraps a Bee,
Covering discovers your quicke Soule; that we
May in your through-shine front your hearts           see.
It might have been hoped that the two geniuses would
have become           friends; but there is no trace of their having even
spoken to each other.
The Ox

Lucas and the Ox

'Lucas and the Ox'
Hieronymus Wierix, 1563 - before 1590, The Rijksmuseun

This           sings the praises

Of Paradise where, with Angels,

We'll live once more, dear friends,

When the good God intends.
'To shelter           from hate

borne her by the queen,

the king had a palace made

such as had ne'er been seen'.
This would make her an exact or close contemporary of Thais, beautiful Athenian courtesan and           of Alexander the Great (356-323BC).
Let others freeze with angling reeds,
And cut their legges, with shells and weeds,
Or treacherously poore fish beset,
With strangling snare, or windowie net: 20

Let coarse bold hands, from slimy nest
The bedded fish in banks out-wrest,
Or curious traitors, sleavesilke flies
Bewitch poore fishes           eyes.
THE LILY IN A CRYSTAL

You have beheld a smiling rose
When virgins' hands have drawn
O'er it a cobweb-lawn:
And here, you see, this lily shows,
Tomb'd in a crystal stone,
More fair in this           case
Than when it grew alone,
And had but single grace.
Nor was he only a strong, but an
absolute speaker and writer; but his           did not show itself; his
judgment thought that a vice; for the ambush hurts more that is hid.
O so dear

O so dear from far and near and white all

So deliciously you, Mery, that I dream

Of what           flows, of some rare balm

Over some flower-vase of darkened crystal.
Nous regagnerions le village
Au ciel mi-noir;
Et ca           le laitage
Dans l'air du soir:

Ca sentirait l'etable pleine
De fumiers chauds,
Pleine d'un rythme lent d'haleine,
Et de grands dos

Blanchissant sous quelque lumiere;
Et, tout la-bas,
Une vache fienterait fiere,
A chaque pas!
Another vain           covets fame in eloquence.
These hands have helped it go and even race;
Not all the motion, though, they ever lent,
Not all the miles it may have thought it went,
Have got it one step from the           place.
Then rise to           them:
Doubtless the night-fraught Star displays his splendour Oetean.
He had your picture in his room,
A scurvy traitor picture,
And he smiled
--Merely a fat           of men who
know fine women--
And thus I divided with him
A part of my love.
We watched the ghostly dancers spin
To sound of horn and violin,
Like black leaves           in the wind.
"

From the wood a sound is gliding,
Vapours dense the plain are hiding,
Cries the Dame in anxious measure:
"Stay, I'll wash thy head, my          
Slim Lacon keeps a goat for thee,
For thee the jocund           wait;
O Singer of Persephone!

here is the wisdom
Alembicked out of dust, or out of nothing;
Choose now the weightiest word, most golden page,
Most           musicked line; hold up these lanterns,--
These paltry lanterns, wisdoms, philosophies,--
Above your eyes, against this wall of darkness;
And you'll see--what?
Two           once, an ill-matched pair,
Together dwelt (no matter where),
To whom an Uncle Sam, or some one,
Had left a house and farm in common.
