To all your praises we are deaf and blind.
We may not ever know if you betray
Our hope, to make earth better for mankind!”
Poet Alfred Noyes (1880 – 1958)፡

uzpg_: Yes; as the music changes,
Like a prismatic glass,
It takes the light and ranges
Through all the moods that pass;
Dissects the common carnival
Of passions and regrets,
And gives the world a glimpse of all
The colours it forgets.

Then look for me by moonlight,
Watch for me by moonlight,

Bugs_Bunnnny: And after all the labour and the pains,
After the heaping up of gold on gold,
After success that locked your feet in chains,
And left you with a heart so tired and old,
Strange - is it not? to find your chief desire,
Is what you might have had for nothing then. -Alfred Noyes-

The little Antichrists we praised
The night is on them all.

“in the dark old inn-yard a stable-wicket creaked
Where Tim the ostler listened. His face was white and peaked.
His eyes were hollows of madness, his hair like mouldy hay,.. ” Alfred Noyes, 1906

Prisoners and exiles, martyrs of the truth

How Art, for all your pain,
Still cries
Ye must be born again!
Reject the wreath of rose,
Take up the crown of thorn
That shows
To-night a child is born.” - Alfred Noyes
