The Star in the West
…rtured his palate with extreme desire , And like a Mænad maddened ; equal fire Leapt in his veins ; locked close for love they lie , The heart's dumb word exprest without a sigh In the strong magic of a lover's kiss .' These superb lines , like those of Swinburne , are in reality a series of brilliant lyrical illustrations depict ing the story in measures of divine song .

Awful and terrible is its path ; the very blood of the heart hisses , as water on hot iron , as it rushes through its fiery veins fanned by a flaming soul : By the sun's heat , that brooks not his eclipse And dissipates the welcome clouds of rain . God ! have Thou pity soon on this amazing pain ." Struggling on , the hideous path is strewn with | Songs of the Spirit , vol . i, p . 41 .

Ah ! Sweet , each kiss I drink from you is warm With the dear life -blood of a man-a man ! The scent of murder lures me , like a charm Tied by some subtlety Canidian .

The intricacy of faery pattern which the witch weaves is the flowered marble. We find such rime-webs as abaaab-babbba and AaBCcAaBCcAaBC and bAbAcBcBAcCDaADA, more exquisite than all the arabesques of the Alhambra.

He felt for his heart and failed to find it, wondered if it had stopped and he were dying, had a fit of fear paralysing all his will. He thought of himself lying dead. ”No, by God!

…oly. To be holy! that is easy to say; but how give one’s self faith when one no longer believes? How re-discover a taste for virtue in a heart faded by vice? One must have recourse to the four words of science: to know, to dare, to will, and to keep silence. One must still one’s dislikes, study duty, and begin by practising it as though one loved it. You are an unbeliever, and you wish to make yourself a Christian ? Perform the exercises of a Christian, pray regularly, using the Christian formule; approach the sacraments as if you had faith, an…
