受伤的鹿和垂死的天鹅肩并肩,在潮水的回转中,芦苇盘旋?鹿和天鹅。就像一百年后一样,她已经死了,而今天正是她死去的日子。我在库梅见过女巫。(一个说)亲眼所见。她被吊在笼子里,向所有过路人念着她的符文。孩子们说:“你想干什么,西比尔?”她回答说:“我会死的。”就像你爱的她的呼吸一样芬芳,当它从她的双乳深处来到你身边。散布这些谎言的是朋友还是敌人? ?Nay, who but infants question in such wise? 'Twas one of my most intimate enemies.? IF I could die like the British Queen Who faced the Roman war, Or hang in a cage for my country's sake Like Black Bess of Dunbar! SHE bound her green sleeve on my helm, Sweet pledge of love's sweet meed: Warm was her bared arm round my neck As well she bade me speed; And her kiss clings still between my lips, Heart's beat and strength at need. WHERE is the man whose soul has never waked To sudden pity of the poor torn past? AT her step the water-hen Springs from her nook, and skimming the clear stream, Ripples its waters in a sinuous curve, And dives again in safety. WOULD God I knew there were a God to thank When thanks rise in me! I SHUT myself in with my soul, And the shapes come eddying forth. ?I HATE? says over and above ?This is a soul that I might love.? None lightly says ?My friend?: even so Be jealous of that name ?My foe.? An enemy for an enemy, But dogs for what a dog can be. Hold those at heart, and time shall prove. DO still thy best, albeit the clue Be snapt of that thou strovest to; Do still thy best, though direful hate Should toil to leave thee desolate. Do still thy best whom Fate would damn. Say?such as I was made I am, And did even such as I could do. Anomalies against all rules Acknowledge, though beyond the schools:? Those passionate states when to know true Some thing, and to believe, are two; And that extraordinary sect Whom no amount of intellect Can save, alas, from being fools. THE bitter stage of life Where friend and foe are parts alternated. THE winter garden-beds all bare, Save only where the redbreast lingering there Brings back one flower-like gleam 'mid the dark mould. WHO shall say what is said in me, With all that I might have been dead in me? WHO knoweth not love's sounds and silences? Where the poets all? Echoes of singing nature?list her call. EVEN as the dreariest swamps, in sweet Springtide, Are most with Mary-flowers beatified. OR reading in some sunny nook Where grass-blade shadows fall across your book. AYE, we'll shake hands, though scarce for love, we two: But I hate hatred worse than I hate you. AND heavenly things in your eyes have place, Those breaks of sky in the twilight face. THOUGH all the rest go by? Ditties and dirges of the unanswering sky. WHAT face but thine has taught me all that art Can be, and still be Nature's counterpart? The zodiac of all beauty? WITH furnaces Of instant flame, and petals of pure light. AND love and faith, the vehement heart of all. FOR this can love, and does love, and loves me. (or) FOR this can love, and does, and loves but me. THE forehead veiled and the veiled throat of Death. THOU that beyond thy real self dost see A self ideal, bid thy heart beware. AND plaintive days that haunt the haggard hills With bleak unspoken woe. TO know for certain that we do not know Is the first step in knowledge. THINK through this silence how when we are old We two shall think upon this place and day. AN ant-sting's prickly at first, But the pain soon dies away; A gnat-sting's worse the next day; But a wasp 'tis stings the worst. AND mad revulsion of the tarnished light. HIS face, in Fortune's favours sunn'd, Was radiantly rubicund. THE glass stands empty of all things it knew. O THOU whose name, being alone, aloud I utter oft, and though thou art not there, Toward thine imaged presence kiss the air. I SAW the love which was my life flow past 'Twixt shadowed reaches, like a murmuring stream:? I was awake, and lo it was a dream. OR give ten years of life's most bitter wane To see the loved one as she was again. AND of the cup of human agony Enough to fill the sea. EVEN as the moon grows clearer on the sky While the sky darkens, and her Venus-star Thrills with a keener radiance from afar. (THE Imperial Cloak?Paludamentum). Imperatorial c
