To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Phaon and Sappho one in life and death.
Ten thousand liars had prated since the world began Of love, one love, one woman and one man.
And measuring thy love by mine I dreamed that it could be. Man s love is but a winged fool that flies From pretty face to pretty face, Nor finds a strong abiding rest in any place. A sensuous shapely form, and well-tricked eyes Will handicap a soul in any race Where love s the prize And man is umpire in the case.
36 The Lure of the Desert Land and Other Poems Pha...on s name is on the tongue of every one, Alcaeus and Stesichorus, they pale in Phaon s sun.
And tis not Sappho walks by Phaon s side.
Tis her not me that Lesbos names with thcc. But though, while yet the dew is on thy fame Thou hast forgotten me And spurned the wondrous sweetness of our love, I tell thee, Phaon, I am greater still than thou; And I will live when thou art only known Because that Sappho loved thee.
. 37 The Lure of the Desert Land and Other Poems HER CHRISTMAS GIFT "I have nothing to give you, darling, For a Christmas gift tonight, Not even the tiniest present To keep my memory bright ; Nothing at all to give you Only my love, " she said.
