…ste, so sombre glows The purpose of her cypress glance ! A sphinx set up amid the snows, An Attis frozen in his dance, Is this unnatural god that knows No mans inheritance. So with a strange Circean smile She bends herself and moves With a vile, a calculated wile In the unfamiliar grooves, Whose horror hath so great a guile That her hates pass for loves. Within the gold bars of her rings She grips the god as in a vice.

H . O. Meredith . I took the dead god by the hand , I filled his nostrils with my breath , I watched the sunken face expand , I watched the life creep back from death , I made him lord of earth and men And ruler over sea and air , Within my heart I loosed again The faint and frozen springs of prayer . II . Now as God waxed so I did wane , For through the dim millennial years Back to the utter source of pain He bore me surfeited with tears . Swift from the present , back through time , Swifter than spears the keen sun throws , He bore and set me…

To reach toward God, and, from His shrine returning, To sing in magic melodies the vast Desires of God towards man—O dreams ! O years Drowned in these bitter tears !

Yet still youth burns ! The hours its pleasure wasted Compel their bitter memories to grow sweet ; Like some warm-perfumed poison if…

Or shall He Rather defend us with His Holy Arm, We not presuming in our arrogance To come with cunning, and defend ourselves ? ELEAZAR. Nay, but God smites with sharpness of our swords, CHORUS. The sword is made sharp in our hands, but the point He shall guide; We grasp the tough ash of the spear, but His hand is beside ; We drive in a cloud at the foe, but His char…

Mine eyes glint fire, And my cruel lips curl; ‘Mine the desire Of the god and the girl; But fierier and fteeter, And subtler and sweeter Than the race of the rhythm, the march of the metre, Is the shrilling, sbrilling Of the knife in the killing That ends, when it must, (O the throb and the thrust!)
