…r red mouth pressed to mine, T had neither heard nor seen Nor felt the Idalian. Between My soul and all its knowledge of The universe of light and love, Thought, being, nature, time and space, The Mother’s heart, the Father’s face, All that was agony or bliss, Stretched an infinite abyss. All that behind me! but my soul, With no star left to point the pole, Witless and banned of grace or goal, Beggared of all its wealth, bereft Of all its images, unweft Its magic web, its tools all broken, Its Name forgot, its Word unspoken,

…rown still. Only, mine eyes, unweary of the sight, Pierce through the dawn-mist of the sacred hill And yearn toward the rose of love and light. My lips, that drank the Heliconian rill, Murmur with slow delight. I see the faces of the lyric Nine! The Rose of God its petals will unfold ! I madden with the ecstasy divine ! My soul leaps sunwards, shrieking—and behold ! Out of the ocean and the kindling brine Apollo’s face of gold ! What music, what delirium, what delight ! What dancing madness catches at my feet ! A tongue of fresh, impossible, ke…

…tales, half-doubted, being So far beyond a rime to trace. What shall they say ? For secret we Have held our love, and holy. Splendour Of light, and music of the sea, And eyes and heart serene and tender, With kisses mingled utterly These were our ways. And who shall know ? What warrior bard our nuptial glories Shall sing ? Historic shall we go Down through our countrys golden stories ? Shall lovers whisper Even so As he loved her do I love you ? So much they shall know, surely ; never The truth, how lofty and fresh as dew Our love began, a…

18 Introduction I love when I love my God ; and yet in this love I find light ; an inner voice, a perfume, a savour, an embrace of a kind which does not leave the inmost of myself. There in the depths of the soul glows something which is not in space : there a word is heard which has no syllables : thence there breathes a perfume which no breezes waft away : there food is always savoured and never eaten : there are embraces which never ask to end...” 3.

…sic stopped, From its place in Heaven dropped, From its starry throne was hurled Beyond the pillars of the world— Borne from the byss of light To the Dark Night! The moon had sunk behind the tower When, for a moment, by the power Of nature, as even the eagle’s eye Turns wearied from the sun, did I Fall from the conning-crag, that springs Above the Universe of Things, Into the dark impertinence Of the mirrored lies of sense. Yet, when I sought the stars to espy And ree the runes of destiny, Mine eyes their wonted office failed, So diligently God…

Even beyond the keen delight—to Be— Steals that diviner mood Of wonder at the miracle—the plan Of Nature crowned by the astounding Man ! The secret of the Lord is set with him That wonders at His Majesty : his praise Wells from no trembler’s misery : his hymn Swells the exultant day’s. His psalm wings upward, and reflected down Even in Hell makes music and renown. Yea ! for the echo of the anthem rolls Down to the lost unfathomable …

Let all the sun’s light and the moon’s be blind, And all the stars be lampless to my mind, ' Until I see the destiny of man And span the cruelty that lurks behind Its beauty, and its glory, and its splendour !— The girl-babe’s face looks up to the mother tender, Looks for a kiss in dumb desire, and finds Her jaws closed trap-like to expunge and end her! 117

And she no word might say, her red lips quailed,
