- | |
THE light of evening Lissadell | B |
Great windows open to the south | C |
Two girls in silk kimonos both | D |
Beautiful one a gazelle | B |
But a raving autumn shears | E |
Blossom from the summer's wreath | F |
The older is condemned to death | G |
Pardoned drags out lonely years | H |
Conspiring among the ignorant | I |
I know not what the younger dreams | J |
Some vague Utopia and she seems | J |
When withered old and skeleton gaunt | K |
An image of such politics | L |
Many a time I think to seek | M |
One or the other out and speak | M |
Of that old Georgian mansion mix | L |
pictures of the mind recall | B |
That table and the talk of youth | N |
Two girls in silk kimonos both | D |
Beautiful one a gazelle | B |
Dear shadows now you know it all | B |
All the folly of a fight | O |
With a common wrong or right | O |
The innocent and the beautiful | B |
Have no enemy but time | P |
Arise and bid me strike a match | Q |
And strike another till time catch | Q |
Should the conflagration climb | P |
Run till all the sages know | R |
We the great gazebo built | S |
They convicted us of guilt | S |
Bid me strike a match and blow | R |
