-
Yes Beauty still rebelsB
Our dreams like clouds disperseC
She dwellsD
In agate marble verseC
-
No false constraint be thineE
But for right walking chooseF
The fineE
The strict cothurnus MuseF
-
Vainly ye seek to escapeG
The toil The yielding phraseH
Ye shapeG
Is clay not chrysopraseH
-
And all in vain ye scornI
That seeming ease which ne erJ
Was bornI
Of aught but love and careK
-
Take up the sculptor s toolL
Recall the gods that dieA
To ruleL
In Parian o er the skyA
-

-
Poet let passion sleepM
Till with the cosmic rhymeN
You keepM
Eternal tone and timeN
-
By rule of hour and flowerJ
By strength of stern restraintO
And powerJ
To fail and not to faintO
-
The task is hard to learnP
While all the songs of SpringQ
ReturnP
Along the blood and singQ
-
Yet hear from her deep skiesH
How Art for all your painR
Still criesH
Ye must be born againS
-
Reject the wreath of roseH
Take up the crown of thornI
That showsH
To night a child is bornI
-
The far immortal faceH
In chosen onyx fineE
EnchaseH
Delicate line by lineE
-
Strive with Carrara fightT
With Parian till there stealU
To lightT
Apollo s pure profileV
-
Set the great lucid formW
Free from its marble tombX
To stormW
The heights of death and doomX
-
Take up the sculptor s toolL
Recall the gods that dieA
To ruleL
In Parian o er the skyA
