To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But unto them that did drink fatal as waters of death.
Left unto thee are the dregs, bitter and biting as wormwood, Freezing the blood in thy veins, leaving thee rigid and cold.
Strange that these lust-loving lips, prodigal once with such passion, 82 THE DEAD CALYPSO Wreathe themselves into a smile chaste as a maiden's in sleep!
Ah, how they 've changed since I first crushed their voluptuous vintage I Shrunk is their soft silken skin, as when the tropical sun Drinking the life of the grape, lea...ves it aban- doned and shriveled.
Gibbeted on its own vine, swinging like felon forgot.
Mute is thy murmuring voice, silent its pas- sionate pleading, Which, like a song of the sea heard in a whispering shell.
Called me so softly to where, rising through ravishing roses, Love's longed-for heaven appeared, fair as a rhapsodist's dream; Misted with halos of gold, yet but a vanishing splendor Miraged in exquisite grace over a desert of death.
83 THE DEAD CALYPSO But when the pulses of youth throb with their eager insistence, When the white snows of the heart melt with the breath of the spring, Then when the currents of life leap with ineffable joyaunce.
