Three ranckes of yron teeth enraunged were, 110
In which yet trickling blood, and gobbets raw
Of late devoured bodies did appeare,
That sight thereof bred cold congealed feare:
Which to increase, and as atonce to kill,
A cloud of smoothering smoke and

Out of his stinking gorge forth steemed still,

How kept the vigils still,

A

And how he hurled us at them
Within the evening hour,
That red night in December,

Sur La Mort de Marie: IV
As in May month, on its stem we see the rose
In its sweet youthfulness, in its freshest flower,
Making the heavens jealous with living colour,
Dawn sprinkles it with tears in the morning glow:
Grace lies in all its petals, and love, I know,
Scenting the trees and scenting the garden's bower,
But, assaulted by
scorching
heat or a shower,
Languishing, it dies, and petals on petals flow.

Ben Jonson - The Devil's Association |
|
Prone from the seat he tumbles to the plain;
His dying hand forgets the falling rein:
This Merion reaches, bending from the car,
And urges to desert the
hopeless
war:
Idomeneus consents; the lash applies;
And the swift chariot to the navy flies.

You thought it something delicate and free,
Soft as the sound of fir-trees in the wind,
Fleeting as

Khalil Gibran - Poems |

Quali a veder de'
fioretti
del melo
che del suo pome li angeli fa ghiotti
e perpetue nozze fa nel cielo,
Pietro e Giovanni e Iacopo condotti
e vinti, ritornaro a la parola
da la qual furon maggior sonni rotti,
e videro scemata loro scuola
cosi di Moise come d'Elia,
e al maestro suo cangiata stola;
tal torna' io, e vidi quella pia
sovra me starsi che conducitrice
fu de' miei passi lungo 'l fiume pria.
