…for Sorrows, or for Deaths or Fears ! Only thy children lie at night and waken How shouldst thou speak and say that no man hears ? O soul of Tears ! For never hath fallen as dew thy word, Nor is thy shape showed, nor as Wisdoms heard Thy crying about the city In the house where is no pity But in the desolate halls and lonely vales of sand : Not in the laughter loud, Nor crying of the crowd, But in the farthest sea, the yet untravelled land.

Yet will I ravish thee even now, my queen ; I will fasten my fangs in thy breast, and drink thy blood, Thy leprous blood, to make me mad with hate, And frenzied with unsatisfied desire— I will make my bed with thee, thou harlot Rose Set ’twixt the limbs of the world, hate and desire.

34 THE SOUL OF OSIRIS. Dissolves it utterly. O bid them go, These white-faced boys, where calmer rivers flow, And birds less passionate invoke the spring, And seek their loves with weaker, wearier wing. Turn back from safety—Let God’s rivers pour Brimstone and fire, and all his fountains roar Lava and hail of hell upon my head, So be he leave us altogether dead, Burnt in that shameful whirlwind of his ire, Consumed in one tall pyramid of fire Whose bowers of flame shall tell the sky of God How we despised his feet with thunder shod, And conquer…
