Since forth from cot and croft
I went mankind among,

In their dim style
Will pause awhile
To hear my say;

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

Hath lodged in this old castle, and my hand
Served them; but never has there passed this way

To an huge column, led the cord around

Odyssey - Cowper |
|
We hear how chariots of war, areek
With hurly slaughter, lop with flashing scythes
The limbs away so suddenly that there,
Fallen from the trunk, they quiver on the earth,
The while the mind and powers of the man
Can feel no pain, for
swiftness
of his hurt,
And sheer abandon in the zest of battle:
With the remainder of his frame he seeks
Anew the battle and the slaughter, nor marks
How the swift wheels and scythes of ravin have dragged
Off with the horses his left arm and shield;
Nor other how his right has dropped away,
Mounting again and on.

With gifts from all my store; this

Fresh from the ewe, green crowns for joyfulness,
And creamy things new-curdled from the press.
