Is it not brave to be a king Techelles	A
Usumcasane and Theridamas	A
Is it not passing brave to be a king	B
And ride in triumph through Persepolis MARLOWE	C
	-
	-
Bring the great words that scourge the thundering line	D
With lust and slaughter words that reek of doom	E
And the lost battle and the ruined shrine	D
Words dire and black as midnight on a tomb	E
Hushed speech of waters on the lip of gloom	E
Huge sounds of death and plunder in the night	F
Words whose vast plumes above the ages meet	G
Girdling the lost dark centuries in their flight	F
The slave of their unfetterable feet	G
	-
Bring words as pure as rills of earliest Spring	B
In some far cranny of the hillside born	H
To stitch against the earth's green habiting	B
Words lonely as the long blue fields of morn	H
Words on the wistful lyre of winds forlorn	H
To the sad ear of grief from distance blown	I
Thin bleat of fawn and airy babble of birds	A
Sounds of bright water slipping on the stone	I
Where the thrilled fountain pipes to woodland words	A
	-
Bring passionate words from noontide's slumber roused	J
To slake the amorous lips of love with fruit	K
Dripping with honey and with syrups drowsed	K
To draw bee murmurs from the dreaming lute	K
Words gold and mad and headlong in pursuit	K
Of laughter words that are too sweet to say	A
And fade unsaid upon some rose's mouth	L
Words soft as winds that ever blow one way	A
The summer way the long way from the south	L
	-
For such words have high lineage and were known	I
Of Milton once whose heart on theirs still beats	A
Marlowe hurled forth huge stars to make them crown	M
They are stained still with the dying lips of Keats	A
As queen they trod the cloak in Shakespeare's streets	A
Pale hands of Shelley gently guard their flame	N
Chatterton's heart was burst upon their spears	A
Their dynasty unbroken and their name	N
Music in men's mouths for all men's ears	A
	-
But now they are lost their lordliest 'scutcheon stained	K
Upon their ruined walls no trumpet rings	A
Their shrines defiled their sacraments profaned	K
Men crown the crow they have given the jackal wings	A
Slaves wear the peplum beggars ride as kings	A
They couple foolish words and look for birth	O
Of mighty emperor Christ or Avatar	P
They mate with slaves from whom no king comes forth	Q
No child is theirs who follow not the Star	P
