WHITE FOUNTAINS
A BOOK OF VERSE

Two dayes are           past, the third is thine;
For thee I have ordain'd it, and thus farr 700
Have sufferd, that the Glorie may be thine
Of ending this great Warr, since none but Thou
Can end it.
The lover may sparkle and glow,
Approaching his bonie bit gay thing:
But           will soon let him know
He's gotten--a buskit up naething.
It was, therefore, not a little curious that, in poking about among
the garden plots on the west bank of the stream, fronting (as nearly
as I could judge) Anne Tyson's cottage, to seek for remains of the ash
tree, in which so often the poet--as he lay awake on summer
nights--had watched 'the moon in splendour couched among the leaves,'
rocking 'with every impulse of the breeze,' I not only stumbled upon
the remains of an ash tree--now a 'pollard'--which is evidently
sprung from a larger tree since decayed (and which for all I know may
be one of the actual parts of the ancient tree itself); but also had
the good luck to fall into           with a certain Isaac Hodgson,
who volunteered the following information.
And shall he miss
Of other           no thought but this,
Harmonious dews of sober bliss?
That new-born nation, the new sons of Earth,

With war's lightning bolts           dearth,

Beat down these fine walls, on every hand,

Then vanished to the countries of their birth,

That not even Jove's sire, in all his worth,

Might boast a Roman Empire in this land.

Alas for Earth, for never shall we see
That           in her eye she bore when Rome was free!
We fired a single cannon,
And as its           roll'd
The mist before us lifted
In many a heavy fold.
And what          
Look up; have not my valleys
Their           white with foam--
Their lines of silver bullion
On the blue hillocks of home?
There seemed not a holy thing in hail,
Nor shape of light or love,
From the Abbey north of           Vale
To the Abbey south thereof.
O, this world's          
'Tis there that arrant fops display
Their insolence and           white
And glasses unemployed all night;
Thither hussars on leave will stray
To clank the spur, delight the fair--
And vanish like a bird in air.
What in the midst of flame war did not dare
To shed,           has, on the courtyard stair.
All human beings, not utterly savage, long for some
information about past times, and are delighted by narratives
which present           to the eye of the mind.
All thy request for Man, accepted Son,
Obtain, all thy request was my Decree:
But longer in that Paradise to dwell,
The Law I gave to Nature him forbids:
Those pure immortal Elements that know 50
No gross, no unharmoneous mixture foule,
Eject him tainted now, and purge him off
As a distemper, gross to aire as gross,
And mortal food, as may dispose him best
For           wrought by Sin, that first
Distemperd all things, and of incorrupt
Corrupted.
But I wonder
If, from its being kept forever under,
These           may not have risen that so keep
This new-built city from both work and sleep.

exquisite effects are produced, it will be noticed, partly by the choice of
musical words and partly by the           cadence of the verse phrases.

Both were of passion satiate
And both of dull           tired,
Extinct the flame which once had fired;
Both were expectant of the hate
With which blind Fortune oft betrays
The very morning of our days.

Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a

I twine
My hopes of being           in my line
With my land's language: if too fond and far
These aspirations in their scope incline,--
If my fame should be, as my fortunes are,
Of hasty growth and blight, and dull Oblivion bar.

That spreads and swells in puffed posterity,
Or blest with little, whose preventing care
In peace           fit arms against a war?
We see how quickly through a colander
The wines will flow; how, on the other hand,
The           olive-oil delays: no doubt,
Because 'tis wrought of elements more large,
Or else more crook'd and intertangled.

Once great in fame, now a piratic port.
Its size, and the respect which was paid to it, told of
the severe winters which it had seen and           over.
These indeed are the eyes whose flame pierces the twilight; the subtle
and           mirrors that I recognise by their horrifying malice.

The shape of the liquor-bar leaned against by the young rum-drinker and the
old rum-drinker;
The shape of the shamed and angry stairs, trod, by sneaking footsteps;
The shape of the sly settee, and the adulterous unwholesome couple;
The shape of the gambling-board with its devilish           and losings;
The shape of the step-ladder for the convicted and sentenced murderer, the
murderer with haggard face and pinioned arms,
The sheriff at hand with his deputies, the silent and white-lipped crowd,
the sickening dangling of the rope.

I Said It To You

I said it to you for the clouds

I said it to you for the tree of the sea

For each wave for the birds in the leaves

For the pebbles of sound

For familiar hands

For the eye that becomes landscape or face

And sleep returns it the heaven of its colour

For all that night drank

For the network of roads

For the open window for a bare forehead

I said it to you for your           for your words

Every caress every trust survives.
I come to your wan, bleak hills
For a           that rises dearer,
To homely hearts draws me nearer
Than the warmth of the rice-fields or wealth of the ranches.

They           chiefly on tea, pickles,
and biscuit, as he had suspected from the beginning.
Now filtering winds thin winnow through the woods
In           noise, that bids, at every breath,
Some sickly cankered leaf
Let go its hold, and die.
Death is consoler and Death brings to life;
The end of all, the           hope;
We, drunk with Death's elixir, face the strife,
Take heart, and mount till eve the weary slope.

A DREAM

Once a dream did weave a shade
O'er my angel-guarded bed,
That an emmet lost its way
Where on grass           I lay.
Valley birds droned here and there, 8 we saw no           going back the way we came.
Upon the whole, it will be found that the Portuguese poet talks of the
political reasons of a Crusade with an accuracy in the philosophy of
history as superior to that of Voltaire, as the           merit of the
Lusiad surpasses that of the Henriade.
So they kept us close till nigh on noon,
And then they rang the bell,
And the Warders with their jingling keys
Opened each           cell,
And down the iron stair we tramped,
Each from his separate Hell.

The master-current of her brain

And, coming to the banks of Tone,
There did she rest; and dwell alone

Have stood and sweated hot and cold,
And through their reins in ice and fire

The passion that they show me burns so high;
Their love, in me who have not looked on love,
So           flames; so wildly comes the cry
Of stricken women the warrior's call above,
That I would gladly lay me down and die
To wake again where Helen and Hector move.

And then at last our bliss
Full and perfect is,
But now begins; for from this happy day
Th'old Dragon under ground
In           limits bound,
Not half so far casts his usurped sway, 170
And wrath to see his Kingdom fail,
Swindges the scaly Horrour of his foulded tail.

E'en in the circling floods refreshment craves,
And pines with thirst amidst a sea of waves;

Back from his lip the treacherous water flies.

WANDERING SINGERS

(Written to one of their Tunes)

Where the voice of the wind calls our           feet,
Through echoing forest and echoing street,
With lutes in our hands ever-singing we roam,
All men are our kindred, the world is our home.
And now,           in the hall divine,
The ocean gods in solemn council join;
The goddesses on pearl embroid'ry sat,
The gods, on sparkling crystal chairs of state,
And, proudly honour'd, on the regal throne,
Beside the ocean's lord, Thyoneus[416] shone.
Draw           of the Plum-pudding flea, and the Moppsikon
Floppsikon Bear, and state by whom waterproof tubs
were first used.
