Castle Gordon
Streams that glide in orient plains,
Never bound by Winter's chains;
Glowing here on golden sands,
There immix'd with foulest stains
From Tyranny's empurpled hands;
These, their richly
gleaming
waves,
I leave to tyrants and their slaves;
Give me the stream that sweetly laves
The banks by Castle Gordon.

and wars, more and more
compact,
I announce splendours and majesties to make all the previous politics of
the earth insignificant.

Many will doubtless ask me,
But I shall never tell!

With bones and skulls I made a rattle,
To

the wolf and carrion-crow
And the homeless dog--but they would not go.

Hugo - Poems |

He did not wring his hands nor weep,
Nor did he peek or pine,
But he drank the air as though it held
Some
healthful
anodyne;
With open mouth he drank the sun
As though it had been wine!
