Your bodies had wearied me, but your passion was ever fresh : You were many indeed, but your love for me was one. Then I perceived the stars to reflect a single sun— Not burning suns themselves, in furious regular race, But mirrors of midnight, lit t…

…rse in three dimensions, that is, below the Abyss. The generating idea is exhibited in its full material sense. The card is ruled by the Sun in Capricornus, the Sign in which he is reborn. The disks are very large and solid; the suggestion of the card is that of a fortress. This represents Law and Order, maintained by constant authority and vigilance. The disks themselves are square; revolution is very opposite to the card; and they contain the signs of the Four Elements. For all that, they revolve; defence is valid only when violently active. …

O tearful and sad When the sun is grown dumber, When the season is mad, And the gods overcome her, When the sky is fulfilled of the frost and the fingers of winter numb her ! O marvellous earth Of multiple mood That givest men birth And delicate food, Red wine to make mirth Of thine own red blood, And corn and green grass and sweet flowers and fruits most heavenly-hued ! Borne skyward in swoon By arrowy hours, Girt round of the:moon And…

…And laughed in death-pang that his blade The mortal thrust so well repaid" 11. The next of the heavenly bodies is the centre of all, the Sun. The Sun is the heart of the system; he harmonises all, energises all, orders all. His is the courage and energy which is the source of all the other lesser forms of motion, and it is because of this that in himself he is calm. They are planets; he is a star. For him all planets come; around him they all move, to him they all tend. It is this centralisation of faculties, their control, their motivation, wh…

The planets draw in endless orbits round The sun ; itself revolves in the profound Black wells of space ; the comets mystic track By the strong rule of a closed curve is bound. Why not with time ? To-morrow we may see The circle endedif to-morrow be And gaze on chaos, and a week bring back Adam and Even beneath the apple tree.

THE COURT OF THE PROFANE 177 THE MAY QUEEN. (OLD STYLE.) IT is summer and sun on the sea, The twilight is drawn to the world : We linger and laugh on the lea, The light of my spirit with me, Sharp limbs in close agony curled. The noise of the music of sleep, The breath of the wings of the night, The song of the magical deep, The sighs of the spirits that weep, Make murmur to tune our delight. Slow feet are our measures that move 3 Swift songs are more soft than the breeze ; Our mouths are made mute for our love ; Our eyes are made soft as the d…

Sways slowly in the eternal calm Of spring, I know a mound of turf Good for our love to lie on; good For breezes, and for sun and shade; To hear the murmur of the flood ; To taste the kava subtly made To rouse to Bacchic ecstacy, Since Dionysus silently Faded from Greece, now only smiles Amid the soft Hawaian isles ; Good, above all the good, to keep Our bodies when we sleep the sleep. 19
