Exactly as the rain-filled cloud is seen
Lifting earthly vapours through the air,
Forming a bow, and then drinking there
By plunging deep in Tethys' hoary sheen,
Next, climbing again where it has been,
With bellying shadow darkening everywhere,
Till finally it bursts in
lightning
glare,
And rain, or snow, or hail shrouds the scene:
This city, that was once a shepherd's field,
Rising by degrees, such power did wield,
She made herself the queen of sea and land,
Till helpless to sustain that huge excess,
Her power dispersed, so we might understand
That all, one day, must come to nothingness.

I HAVE lived with shades so long,
And talked to them so oft,
Since forth from cot and croft
I went mankind among,
That sometimes they
In their dim style
Will pause awhile
To hear my say;

And take me by the hand,
And lead me through their rooms
In the To-be, where Dooms
Half-wove and

And show from there

And rot and rust
Of things that were.

It must gush out
spontaneous
from the soul,
And with a fresh delight enchanting
The hearts of all that hear control.

With an

'Paulina nostri pectoris consortio,
fomes pudoris,
castitatis
uinculum
amorque purus et fides caelo sata,
arcana mentis cui reclusa credidi,
munus deorum qui maritalem torum
nectunt amicis et pudicis nexibus,
pietate matris, coniugali gratia,
nexu sororis, filiae modestia
et quanta amicis iungimur fiducia,
aetatis usu, consecrandi foedere,
iugi fideli simplici concordia
iuuans maritum, diligens ornans colens;
Paulina ueri et castitatis conscia,
dicata templis atque amica numinum,
sibi maritum praeferens, Romam uiro,
pudens fidelis pura mente et corpore,
benigna cunctis, utilis penatibus.
