…for Know- ledge’ sake. | The full moon rose. dumb the first woman’s shame, martyrdom. Creation’s voice was For strength, FEMMES DAMNEES. Kiss me, O sister, kiss me down to death! The purple of the passionate hour is flaked With notes of gold: there swim desires un- slaked, Impossible raptures of expostulate breath. The marble heaves with longing; hungereth The mouth half-open for the unawaked Mouth of the baby blossom, where there ached Never till now the parched sweet song that saith: ‘‘Ah! through the grace of languor and the glow Of form ste…

This, thi…

…led Its passion round us; bade forget The joy with which our eyes were wet. All faded, folded in the bliss ; Unfolded the first fadeless kiss. Then my soul woke, not sundering lips, But winged against the black eclipse Of sense: my soul on wings did poise Her glory in the vast turquoise Of the whole sky : expanded far Beyond the farthest sun or star, Beyond all space, all time. I saw The very limits of the law That hath no bounds: beheld the bliss Of that first wonder of the kiss In its true self: how very love Is God, and hath its substance of…

… Lift, O rose petals of my rose, Toward me, rest, dream on, we are here, we love. There is no shadow above, No ghost below; we are here. Kiss! Kiss/ for ever, Who would have believed, have thought of this ? Outside is nothing. Let what will uproll, Within all’s certain. Are we not aware (Who see the hand) What brain must know —and care? What wisdom formed the racers, find a goal? Careless and confident, let us love on. Life, one or many, rises from a seed, Sprouts, blooms, bears fruit, and then is gone—is gone.

… man. A bitter craft Is mine, he saith, O soldiers of Japan ! I am the brothel-knave of death, The grimly courtesan. Now who will up and kiss her lips, Or grip her breast and bone? The subtle life she shears and snips Is harder gained than gone ; The lover’s laughter whom she clips Is but a dying groan. She lieth not on a gilded bed In the city without the city.! One kiss is hers full rank and red— Do you sip at her lip? Hell hangs on her fangs ! She loves ; love laughs at pity ! Then who will up to taste her mouth? Who on her mount and ride? L…

I KISSED the face of Flavia fair, In the deep wet dews of dawn, And the ruddy weight of my lover’s hair Fell over me and held me there On the broad Italian lawn. And the bright Italian moon arose And cleft the cypress grove ; For sadness in all beauty grows, And sorrow from its master knows How to appear like love. Alas ! that Flavia’s gentle kiss, And Flavia’s cool caress, And Flavia’s flower of utter bliss Mus…

Then in the broad glare of the careless sun Apollo’s light is on her and within ; His shafts of glory pierce her one by one; His kisses darken, shivering and keen, Swift glories cold and clean Of that chaste bridal, and the earth gets gladness, Till the last winter’s traces Fall from the spring’s last cold wind—shining sadness !— And from the frail new faces Blushing through moss; and all the world is light With the unsufferably bright Full joy and guerdon of that sunny season By Love’s sweet trap of treason. So the bright girl is now a…
