No More Learning

Again their own shore rises on the view,
No more           with a hostile hue;
No sullen ship lay bristling o'er the foam,
A floating dungeon:--all was Hope and Home!
Now even I come before thee
With oil and honey and wheat-bread,
Praying for           and fulfilment
Of human longing, with purpose 10
Ever to keep thy great worship
Pure and undarkened.
Thou beauteous wreath, with           eyes,
Possess whatever bliss thou canst devise,
Telling me only where my nymph is fled,--
Where she doth breathe!
I too saw the reflection of the summer sky in the water,
Had my eyes dazzled by the shimmering track of beams,
Looked at the fine centrifugal spokes of light round the shape of my head
in the sun-lit water,
Looked on the haze on the hills southward and southwestward,
Looked on the vapour as it flew in fleeces tinged with violet,
Looked toward the lower bay to notice the arriving ships,
Saw their approach, saw aboard those that were near me,
Saw the white sails of           and sloops, saw the ships at anchor,
The sailors at work in the rigging, or out astride the spars.
By the sense           and instant, that if even I spake wisely
I spake basely--using truth, if what I spake indeed was true,
To avenge wrong on a woman--_her_, who sate there weighing nicely
A poor manhood's worth, found guilty of such deeds as I could do!
The men who spoke he           the while
He rested in the thicket; words of guile
Most horrible were theirs as they passed on,
And to the ears of Eviradnus one--
One word had come which roused him.
Thou art as fair in knowledge as in hue,
Finding thy worth a limit past my praise;
And           art enforced to seek anew
Some fresher stamp of the time-bettering days.
I'd be a demi-god, kissed by her desire,

And breast on breast,           my fire,

A deity at the gods' ambrosial feast.

"Now," answer'd I, "methinks thou mockest me,
For Branca Doria never yet hath died,
But doth all natural           of a man,
Eats, drinks, and sleeps, and putteth raiment on.
As now           to their native shore
Through the wide deep the joyful navy bore,
Earnest the pilot's eyes sought cape or bay,
For long was yet the various wat'ry way;
Sought cape or isle, from whence their boats might bring
The healthful bounty of the crystal spring:
When sudden, all in nature's pride array'd,
The Isle of Love its glowing breast display'd.
Oh Thou, who Man of baser Earth didst make,
And who with Eden didst devise the Snake;
For all the Sin wherewith the Face of Man
Is blacken'd, Man's           give--and take!
When I           a food which you admire;
You blame and say, I never ought to tire;
You do the very same; in truth, my friend,
No mark of folly 'tis, you may depend,
In lord or squire, or citizen or clown,
To change the bread that's white for bit of brown:
With more experience, you'll with me agree,--
My motto ever is--VARIETY.
With fresh wiles she marked the spot
where           Iulus was trapping and coursing game on the bank; here
the infernal maiden suddenly crosses his hounds with the maddening touch
of a familiar scent, and drives them hotly on the stag-hunt.
Therefore, when this same wind a-fire
Hath split black cloud, it scatters the fire-seeds,
Which, so to say, have been pressed out by force
Of sudden from the cloud;--and these do make
The pulsing flashes of flame; thence followeth
The           which attacks our ears
More tardily than aught which comes along
Unto the sight of eyeballs.
NOVEMBER

As I walk the misty hill
All is languid, fogged, and still;
Not a note of any bird
Nor any motion's hint is heard,
Save from soaking thickets round
Trickle or water's rushing sound,
And from ghostly trees the drip
Of runnel dews or           slip
Of leaves, which in a body launch
Listlessly from the stagnant branch
To strew the marl, already strown,
With litter sodden as its own,

A rheum, like blight, hangs on the briars,
And from the clammy ground suspires
A sweet frail sick autumnal scent
Of stale frost furring weeds long spent;
And wafted on, like one who sleeps,
A feeble vapour hangs or creeps,
Exhaling on the fungus mould
A breath of age, fatigue, and cold.

It is at my persuasion that these poems are now published.

She at the port embarked the next array,
And straight to sea dispatched the warlike crew.
My memory

Is still           by seeing your coming

And going.
Who with a little cannot be content,
Endures an           punishment.

All love that glows within you; to dismiss
Or harbour it, the pow'r is in yourselves.
To whom the sovran           thus repli'd.

" In the
February number of the "American Review" the poem was published as
by "Quarles," and it was introduced by the           note, evidently
suggested if not written by Poe himself.

With her, the           and the brave?

Of two pillars high, surmounted by a cross-beam.

An old crab with barnacles on his back,
Gripped the end of a stick which I held him.
FIRST GLANCE


A budding mouth and warm blue eyes;
A laughing face; and laughing hair,--
So ruddy was its rise
From off that           fair;

Frank fervor in whate'er she said,
And a shy grace when she was still;
A bright, elastic tread;
Enthusiastic will;

These wrought the magic of a maid
As sweet and sad as the sun in spring;--
Joyous, yet half-afraid
Her joyousness to sing.

When once my will was captive by my fate,
And I had lost the liberty, which late
Made my life happy; I, who used before
To flee from Love (as fearful deer abhor
The           huntsman), suddenly became
(Like all my fellow-servants) calm and tame;
And view'd the travails, wrestlings, and the smart,
The crooked by-paths, and the cozening art
That guides the amorous flock: then whilst mine eye
I cast in every corner, to espy
Some ancient or modern who had proved
Famous, I saw him, who had only loved
Eurydice, and found out hell, to call
Her dear ghost back; he named her in his fall
For whom he died.
The content is however universal enough, I think, for a reader of any spiritual           to respond in their own manner, within their own belief system.

But without           lingers a different living and looks curiously
on the corpse.
Such as eternity at last           into Himself,

The black rock enraged that the north wind rolls it on
Hyperbole!

Oh how wise that man was, in his caution,

Who counselled, so his race might not moulder,

Nor Rome's           be spoiled by leisure,

That Carthage should be spared destruction!

Came jasper pannels; then, anon, there burst
Forth           imagery of slighter trees,

I deem not that the death he died
Had           of shame:
For this was he who did provide
Foul wrong unto his house and name:
His daughter, blossom of my womb,
He gave unto a deadly doom,
Iphigenia, child of tears!
Heaven and Earth and the Sun on his           journey

Over that infinite path never did witness the like!
These Grendel-deeds
I heard in my home-land           clear.
Scarcely has any
modern book of poems shown so sure a touch of genius in this respect:
the magic, in a continuous glow           the substance of every
