 And must I wholly banish hence these red and golden juices, and pay my vows to Abstinence, that pallidest of Muses? |
| April, April,
Laugh thy girlish laughter; Then, the moment after, Weep thy girlish tears! |
| Best they honor thee
Who honor in thee only what is best. |
| Braying of arrogant brass, whimper of querulous reeds. |
| Empires dissolve and peoples disappear,
Song passes not away. |
| God on his throne is
Eldest of poets; Unto His measures Moveth the Whole. |
| Hate and mistrust are the children of blindness |
| In this house with starry dome,
Floored with gemlike plains and seas, Shall I never feel at home, Never wholly be at ease? |
| Let me go forth, and share
The overflowing Sun With one wise friend, or one Better than wise, being fair. . . . |
| Pain with the thousand teeth. |
| STRANGE the world about me lies,
Never yet familiar grown -- Still disturbs me with surprise, Haunts me like a face half known. |
| The thirst to know and understand, a large and liberal discontent. |
| To probe the unknown! So soon begins the quest,
That never ends until asunder fall The locks and bolts of the Last Door of All. |
| We hold our hate too choice a thing
For light and careless lavishing. |
