If I seem calmer, it is but that age has robbed me of the force of passion. In vain you tell me, laughing, that if she ever lived, she is long since dead ; or at least is an old woman, the blonde gold faded, the child-face wrinkled, the body bowed and lax. I laugh at you—at you—for a blaspheming ass. Your folly is too wild to anger me!” “T did not laugh,” said Roderic…

Of course , there are other Gods, notably Pan. (I must ask you to set my "Hymn to Pan" to music.) But I doubt if any of these are what you want . Probably the most practical plan would be to…

In the shadow stood a physician ; at the bedside sat a nurse, and in her arms a Child. “ Brother! ” she said faintly, “ the number of the grade is Three, and I have given myself three times. Once to the brute, once to the man—my man! (her hand pressed his, oh! too feebly !) and now—40 God!“ The tears sprang to his eyes. “ It is for you,” she whispered, “ to understand the chi…

The Equinox (Volume I, Number IX)

THE EQUINOX See! With an idle rime I slip again to the splendour, With eyes all blinded by time, To this thing that the gods surrender— Ineffably sad and tender As a girl-babe born to die Ere she hath known the blue of the sky, And the light that her love shall lend her. So in an idle dream I have slipped from the yellow-gray; On the wings of song I have crossed the stream To the dawn of immortal youth— To the long-lost love-lit day When the gods in glamour and ruth Passed as a dream away, In a dream that was known for the truth.

POPOPOPOPDO THE EQUINOX . What is reality? . Knowledge identical with being. What is reason? The Word identical with being. What is justice ? The motive of acts identical with being. What is the absolute ? Being. Can one conceive anything superior to being? No ; but one conceives in being itself something super- eminent and transcendental. Q. POPO> 0° What is that? The supreme reason of being. Do you know it, and can you define it ? Faith alone affirms it, and names it God. Is there anything above truth? Above known truth, there is unknown trut…
