To grant the "civic guard" is not to grant

Those lappets on your shoulders, citizens,
Your eyes strain after
sideways
till they ache
(While still, in admirations and amens,
The crowd comes up on festa-days to take
The great sight in)--are not intelligence,
Not courage even--alas, if not the sign
Of something very noble, they are nought;
For every day ye dress your sallow kine
With fringes down their cheeks, though unbesought
They loll their heavy heads and drag the wine
And bear the wooden yoke as they were taught
The first day.

He doubtless did his best;
How softly sinks his

In human nature's west!

Without a struggle was Argaeus brought
To his unhappy life's

And he who slew him never had such thought,
Nor this would have believed: to aid his friend
Intent, (strange chance!

The reading, in the edition of 1793,
In these lone vales, if aught of faith may claim,
Thin silver hairs, and ancient hamlet fame;
When up the hills, as now, retreats the light,
Strange apparitions mock the village sight,
is better than that finally adopted,
In these
secluded
vales, if village fame,
Confirmed by hoary hairs, belief may claim;
When up the hills, as now, retired the light,
Strange apparitions mocked the shepherd's sight.

Still fan the sweet connubial flame
Responsive in each bosom;
And bless the dear parental name
With many a filial blossom.

Waley - 170 Chinese Poems |
|
It speaks of sunken eyes, and wasted cheeks,
And Beauty long deceased--remembers me
Of Joy departed--Hope, the Seraph Hope,
Inurned and entombed:--now, in a tone
Low, sad, and solemn, but most audible,
Whispers of early grave
untimely
yawning
For ruined maid.

[58]
While pastoral pipes and streams the landscape lull, 220
And bells of passing mules that tinkle dull,
In solemn shapes before the admiring eye
Dilated hang the misty pines on high,
Huge convent domes with
pinnacles
and towers,
And antique castles seen through gleamy [59] showers.
