The Knight's Song

I'll tell thee everything I can:There's little to relate.I saw an aged aged man,A-sitting on a gate.'Who are you, aged man?' I said.'And how is it you live?'And his answer trickled through my head,Like water through a sieve.He said, 'I look for butterfliesThat sleep among the wheat:I make them into mutton-pies,And sell them in the street.I sell them unto men,' he said,'Who sail on stormy seas;And that's the way I get my bread,A trifle, if you please.'But I was thinking of a planTo dye one's whiskers green,And always use so large a fanThat they could not be seen.So having no reply to giveTo what the old man said, I cried'Come, tell me how you live!'And thumped him on the head.His accents mild took up the tale:He said 'I go my ways,And when I find a mountain-rill,I set it in a blaze;

Upon Cupid.

Love, like a beggar, came to me    With hose and doublet torn:    His shirt bedangling from his knee,    With hat and shoes outworn.    He ask'd an alms; I gave him bread,    And meat too, for his need:    Of which, when he had fully fed,    He wished me all good speed.    Away he went, but as he turn'd    (In faith I know not how)    He touch'd me so, as that I burn['d],    And am tormented now.    Love's silent flames and fires obscure    Then crept into my heart;    And though I saw no bow, I'm sure    His finger was the dart.By Robert Herric

An Artist Of The Beautiful

George Fuller    Haunted of Beauty, like the marvellous youth    Who sang Saint Agnes' Eve! How passing fair    Her shapes took color in thy homestead air!    How on thy canvas even her dreams were truth!    Magician! who from commonest elements    Called up divine ideals, clothed upon    By mystic lights soft blending into one    Womanly grace and child-like innocence.    Teacher I thy lesson was not given in vain.    Beauty is goodness; ugliness is sin;    Art's place is sacred: nothing foul therein    May crawl or tread with bestial feet profane.    If rightly choosing is the painter's test,    Thy

A Riverina Road

Now while so many turn with love and longing    To wan lands lying in the grey North Sea,    To thee we turn, hearts, mem�ries, all belonging,    Dear land of ours, to thee.    West, ever west, with the strong sunshine marching    Beyond the mountains, far from this soft coast,    Until we almost see the great plains arching,    In endless mirage lost.    A land of camps where seldom is sojourning,    Where men like the dim fathers of our race    Halt for a time, and next day, unreturning,    Fare ever on apace.    Last night how many a leaping blaze affrighted    The wailing birds of passage in their file:   &nb

One Day And Another A Lyrical Eclogue Part IV Late Autumn

 By Madison Julius Cawein Part IVLate Autumn     They who die young are blest. -        Should we not envy such?     They are Earth's happiest,        God-loved and favored much! -     They who die young are blest.1Sick and sad, propped among pillows, she sits at her window.'Though the dog-tooth violet comeWith April showers,And the wild-bees' music humAbout the flowers,We shall never wend as whenLove laughed leading us from menOver violet vale and glen,Where the bob-white piped for hours,And we heard the rain-crow's drum.Now November heavens are gray;Autumn killsEvery joy - like leaves of MayIn the rills. -Still I sit

The Marionettes

    The Marionettes    By Walter De La Mare   Let the foul Scene proceed:    There's laughter in the wings;'Tis sawdust that they bleed,    But a box Death brings.How rare a skill is theirs    These extreme pangs to show,How real a frenzy wears    Each feigner of woe!Gigantic dins uprise!    Even the gods must feelA smarting of the eyes    As these fumes upsweal.Strange, such a Piece is free,    While we Spectators sit,Aghast at its agony,    Yet absorbed in it!Dark is the outer air,    Cold the night
