Excerpt from The Tragedy of Etarre: A Poem Song Children of the misty plain, Creatures wrought of cloud and rain, Shadowed phantoms of the brain Of the dreaming earth, Fade and vanish in the sun All your magic is undone, All your charmed webs unspun, Tangles little worth, Tattered shreds and wisps of grey By the breezes swept away, Smitten by the swords of day. [during the song the fog has begun to clean] Fade and vanish, take you hence, Loos...

Excerpt from The Ethics of Euripides "Nature's way is ever the strongest and best, " wrote Pindar in his ninth Olympian ode. Like much of his teaching, the aphorism has more earnestness than originality. Indeed, it is as a commonplace of Greek conviction that I have chosen it as my starting-point and text. If it were possible to comprise in one short sentence the essential differences of the Greek genius from that of other nations and of mode...

Excerpt from The Tragedy of Etarre: A PoemIs this the dawn whose fingers strive so weak To pluck away the clinging shroud of night, Or is this some unlightened, sullen land Fallen between the darkness and the day P Back from me, shrouded phantoms, misty sprites This is no time to whirl your shadow-dance Seek out the ¿ooded marshes of the North If ye would revel, seek the sunless heights And laugh along their chasms and dark ravines, Or frown a...

Excerpt from The Sun-Thief and Other Poems Scene: A desolate mountain region. Snow and ice amid gigantic crags. Through almost perpendicular gorges, glimpses of lowland and sea. A Voice Wind of the dawn, grey herald, wake, Fulfil thy solitary way, O'er mountain tarn and frozen lake Swift-footed, run before the day. Voices [singing] Swing low, swing low beneath the night, Ye hanging lanterns of the stars, Slow-fingered morn with key of...

Excerpt from The Plainsman: And Other Poems A Plainsman to the Mountains You come again, fainter than smoke at morning, Dim guardians of heaven, shadow-fair, Like an enchanted isle earth's harbour scorning You drift upon the ocean of the air. You are moon-shadow crossed with daylight's gleam, Faint as blue iris on a summer stream, You float above my meadows, clear and pale As the star-ships at sunrise ere they sail Beyond the daystorm, o...
