…eous Wrath in the light, and knows his place ; For hate of a mother is ill, and the lightning flashes But foil a harlot’s will, burn the earth to ashes, Cleanse the incestuous sty of a whore’s desire, Scatter the dung to the sky, and burn her with fire !

But short Bliss of the earth is ours ; The kiss that stops the avenging thought ; The furtive passion shrewdly caught Between the summer flowers. So, Flavia, till the dawn awake Cling close, cling close, as this is ! While moonlight lingers on the lake, Our present happiness we’ll take And fill the night with kisses ! IX. KATIE CARR.

…ps you do not understand what is at the root of that passion. I will tell you. You have an inexpressible hunger of the soul; you despise earth and its delusions; and you aspire unconsciously to at higher life than anything this planet can offer. "I will tell you something that may convince you of my right to speak. You were born on October the eleventh; so Brother Cyril told me. But he did not tell me the hour; you never told him; it was a little before sunrise." Lisa was taken aback; the mystic had guessed right. "The Order to which I belong,"…

84 ALICE: AN ADULTERY .- Thus we went Northward to the capital, Desolate huts and ways funereal, An hateful town; earthquake and heat and rain Made the place wretched, did not love enchain There even as here: what mattered aught at all While love was hovering and our lips were fain ? THE FORTY-EIGHTH DAY. ‘ Tet us return And strain what other means is left to us In our dear peril.” Timon of Athens.

…as surrounded had aided to make it easy for her. It flattered her vanity that she was the keystone of so great an arch, destined to span earth and heaven. Her new conditions, the relaxation of the tension, threw down her exaltation. The experiment was over; well, then, it ought to be over — and she had months of boredom before her which must be endured with no stimulus but that of normal human duty. She was one of those people who will make any sacrifice at the moment, beggar themselves to help a friend, but who are quite incapable of drawing a…

The roar of earthquake stuns the ear ; The powers volcanic rise, Casting the lava red and sheer A million miles in ether clear Beyond the labouring skies. Ghastlier faces bend around And gristlier fears above. They see no sight: they hear no sound ; But look toward the chill profound End and abyss of love. The water and the skies are fallen Far beyond sight of them. All earth and fire gasp and expire: The night hath lost …

In her earth-life, too, she became more obviously ill-tempered; and, as to a woman of her type revenge only means one thing, she amused the garrison exceedingly by attempting flirtations. The rule of the Profess-House happened to include the virtue of chastity, which is an active and positive thing, a passion, not that mere colourless abstinence and stagnation which passes in Puritan countries by that [289] name, breeds more wickedness than all the vice on the planet, and, at the best, is shared by clinkers.

Subsequently she discovered that this plan extended even to her diet — she was to live exclusively on those foods which wise men of old classified as lunar in nature, on account either of their inherent qualities, or because they are traditionally sacred to Diana.
