He, vanquished, winged and spurred with swift desire, Certain of fate decreed by godly ire, Pauses with arm outstretched to grasp the goal Where, lost to him forever, hides the soul.
86 Will they thus everlastingly outspeed The clouds that man must follow in his need ? Will they ne'er wake, some living, thrilling day, Crowned by Apollo's rustling wreath of bay ?
Into the well of close eternity, The stricken eyes of Daphne may not see, Only her heaving heart beneath its snow, A white palimpsest
...is, we may not know.
WRITTEN IN VENICE "OEYOND the slender range of Dolomites, J-' Where, nodding like two wrinkled, ancient crones, Verona to her neighbor, Padua, drones, We came upon that road whose towered heights Await the shriner Asolo invites. Well-worn our ways through mulberries and vines Unto the phantom-land where Venice twines A charm about her glow-worm satellites. The gondolieri ply their quiet oars, The sombre craft slips seaward to the stars, The silence, with mute praises, clasps the shores, All sound, save lisp of waters, it debars.
