His Wonders and his Prayses doe contend,
Which should be thine, or his: silenc'd with that,
In viewing o're the rest o'th' selfe-same day,
He findes thee in the stout Norweyan Rankes,
Nothing afeard of what thy selfe didst make
Strange Images of death, as thick as Tale
Can post with post, and euery one did beare
Thy prayses in his Kingdomes great defence,
And powr'd them downe before him

With nothing of language but
O dreamer, that I may dive
All at once, as if in play,
Not meaningless
flurries
like
Any solitude
When the shadow with fatal law menaced me
The virginal, living and lovely day
Victoriously the grand suicide fled
Her pure nails on high dedicating their onyx,
- 'Over the lost woods when dark winter lowers
To the sole task of voyaging
All summarised, the soul,
What silk of time's sweet balm
To introduce myself to your story
Crushed by the overwhelming cloud
My books closed again on Paphos' name,
My soul, towards your brow where O calm sister,
Each Dawn however numb
She slept: her finger trembled, amethyst-less
Frigid roses to last
O so dear from far and near and white all
Mery,
Since Maria left me to go to another star - which one, Orion, Altair - or you
The flesh is sad, alas!

Across the quiet pond the small waves sped.

ante tuos ortus melius sua sidera seruat
nauita nec media nescius errat aqua;
te surgit quamuis lassus
ueniente
uiator,
et miles saeuas aptat ad arma manus;
prima bidente uides oneratos arua colentis,
prima uocas tardos sub iuga panda boues;
tu pueros somno fraudas tradisque magistris,
ut subeant tenerae uerbera saeua manus,
atque eadem sponsum inuitos ante atria mittis,
unius ut uerbi grandia damna ferant;
nec tu consulto, nec tu iucunda diserto:
cogitur ad litis surgere uterque nouas;
tu, cum feminei possint cessare labores,
lanificam reuocas ad sua pensa manum.

They burn with an
unquenched
and smothered fire
Consumed by longings over which they brood,
Oblivious of time, without desire,
Alone and lost in their great solitude.
