It was deep night, and over Jerusalem's low roofs
The moon floated, drifting through high vaporous woofs.
The moonlight crept and glistened silent, solemn, sweet,
Over dome and column, up empty, endless street;

Absalom And Achitophel

Before polygamy was made a sin;
When man, on many, multipli'd his kind,
Ere one to one was cursedly confin'd:

Kine in droves,
In ocean sport the scaly herds,
Wedge-like cleave the air the birds,

Lancelot 06

To Joyous Gard, where now for long his army,

My dear, among it all;

The Spirit Of The Unborn Babe
The Spirit of the Unborn Babe peered through the window-pane,
Peered through the window-pane that glowed like beacon in the night;
For, oh, the sky was desolate and wild with wind and rain;
And how the little room was crammed with coziness and light!

She is already descending among us, holy and blessed,
And with her are angels, a host of peace and rest,

At the end of the room
By that harpsichord, built on the quaint old plan?
It is cold as a tomb,

And like a spark that in the ashes lies,
Satiric laughter glinted in his eyes
And made his nose auroral with its ray:

John Le Gay Brereton
On A Cannon
Begotten, and born, and dying with noise,
The terror of women, and pleasure of boys,
Like the fiction of poets concerning the wind,
I'm chiefly unruly when strongest confined.

Who boast a polish'd mind and faultless face,
Awhile the councils of Philemon hear!

By Life Tormented
By life tormented, and by cunning hope,
When my soul surrenders in its battle with them,
Day and night I press my eyelids closed
And sometimes I'm vouchsafed peculiar visions.

The buds are bursting on the wild sweet-briar.
To-night the Spring is born-the breeze takes fire.

To one in love, that he the lady gained,
And full possession in the end obtained:

With one wise friend, or one
Better than wise, being fair,
