The fumes of wine

Away--away--'mid seas of rays that roll
Empyrean splendor o'er th'
unchained
soul--
The soul that scarce (the billows are so dense)
Can struggle to its destin'd eminence--
To distant spheres, from time to time, she rode,
And late to ours, the favour'd one of God--
But, now, the ruler of an anchor'd realm,
She throws aside the sceptre--leaves the helm,
And, amid incense and high spiritual hymns,
Laves in quadruple light her angel limbs.

Who would demonstrate Rome's true grandeur,
In all her vast dimensions, all her might,
Her length and breadth, and all her depth and height
Needs no line or lead, compass or measure:
He only need draw a circle, at his leisure,
Round all that Ocean in his arms holds tight,
Be it where Sirius scorches with his light,
Or where the
northerlies
blow cold forever.

Dont le travail divin deforme encor les mondes
Quand la lepre, a la fin, rongera ce corps doux,

Wise is the ancient sacrament that blends

With strength of prayer or anthem that ascends
To Him who hearts of men and children searches;
Since we are like the babe, who, soothed again,
Within her mother's cradling arm lay nested,
Bright as a new bud, now, refreshed by rain:
And on her hair, it seemed, heaven's radiance rested.

As by the kindling of the self-same fire
Harder this clay, this wax the softer grows,
So by my love may Daphnis;
sprinkle

And with bitumen burn the brittle bays.

Virgil - Eclogues |

That sun, which ever signall'd the right road,
Where flash'd her own bright feet, to heaven to fly,
Returning
to the Eternal Sun on high,
Has quench'd my light, and cast her earthly load;
Thus, lone and weary, my oft steps have trode,
As some wild animal, the sere woods by,
Fleeing with heavy heart and downcast eye
The world which since to me a blank has show'd.

"It shall be as thou wishest," said the Dame:
"All cates and dainties shall be stored there
Quickly on this feast-night: by the tambour frame
Her own lute thou wilt see: no time to spare,
For I am slow and feeble, and scarce dare
On such a
catering
trust my dizzy head.
