    I have no time to dote or dream��
You call it hope ´ that fire of fire��
It is but agony of desire��
If I _can_ hope ´ Oh God� �I can ´
    Its fount is holier ´ more divine ´
I would not call thee fool�察�old man��
    But such is not a gift of thine。

Know thou the secret of a spirit
    Bow'd from its wild pride into shame。
O� �yearning heart� �I did inherit
    Thy withering portion with the fame��
The searing glory which hath shone
Amid the jewels of my throne��
Halo of Hell� �and with a pain
Not Hell shall make me fear again ´
O� �craving heart�察�for the lost flowers
And sunshine of my summer hours��
Th' undying voice of that dead time��
With its interminable chime��
Rings�察�in the spirit of a spell��
Upon thy emptiness ´ a knell。

I have not always been as now��
The fever'd diadem on my brow
    I claim'd and won usurpingly ´
Hath not the same fierce heirdom given
    Rome to the Caesar ´ this to me��
        The heritage of a kingly mind��
And a proud spirit which hath striven
        Triumphantly with human kind。

On mountain soil I first drew life��
    The mists of the Taglay have shed
    Nightly their dews upon my head��
And�察�I believe�察�the winged strife
And tumult of the headlong air
Have nestled in my very hair。

So late from Heaven ´ that dew ´ it fell
    ��Mid dreams of an unholy night��
Upon me ´ with the touch of Hell��
    While the red flashing of the light
From clouds that hung�察�like banners�察�o'er��
    Appeared to my half´closing eye
    The pageantry of monarchy��
And the deep trumpet´thunder's roar
    Came hurriedly upon me�察�telling
        Of human battle�察�where my voice��
    My own voice�察�silly child�  � was swelling
        ��O� �how my spirit would rejoice��
And leap within me at the cry��
The battle´cry of Victory��

The rain came down upon my head
    Unshelter'd ´ and the heavy wind
    Was giantlike ´ so thou�察�my mind�  �
It was but man�察�I thought�察�who shed
    Laurels upon me�此�and the rush ´
The torrent of the chilly air
Gurgled within my ear the crush
    Of empires ´ with the captive's prayer ´
The hum of suiters ´ and the tone
Of flattery 'round a sovereign's throne。

My passions�察�from that hapless hour��
    Usurp'd a tyranny which men
Have deem'd�察�since I have reach'd to power��
        My innate nature ´ be it so��
    But�察�father�察�there liv'd one who�察�then��
Then ´ in my boyhood ´ when their fire
        Burn'd with a still intenser glow��
��For passion must�察�with youth�察�expire��
    E'en _then_ who knew this iron heart
    In woman's weakness had a part。

I have no words ´ alas�  � to tell
The loveliness of loving well��
Nor would I now attempt to trace
The more than beauty of a face
Whose lineaments�察�upon my mind��
Are  shadows on th' unstable wind��
Thus I remember having dwelt
Some page of early lore upon��
With loitering eye�察�till I have felt
The letters ´ with their meaning ´ melt
To fantasies ´ with none。

O�察�she was worthy of all love��
Love ´ as in infancy was mine ´
'Twas such as angel minds above
Might envy�察�her young heart the shrine
On which my ev'ry hope and thought
    Were incense ´ then a goodly gift��
        For they were childish ´ and upright ´
Pure  as her young example taught��
    Why did I leave it�察�and�察�adrift��
        Trust to the fire within�察�for light��

We grew in age ´ and love ´ together��
    Roaming the forest�察�and the wild��
My breast her shield in wintry weather ´
    And�察�when the friendly sunshine smil'd��
And she would mark the opening skies��
_I_ saw no Heaven ´ but in her eyes。

Young Love's first lesson is  the heart��
    For 'mid that sunshine�察�and those smiles��
When�察�from our little cares apart��
    And laughing at her girlish wiles��
I'd throw me on her throbbing breast��
    And pour my spirit out in tears ´
There was no need to speak the rest ´
    No need to quiet any fears
Of her ´ who ask'd no reason why��
But turn'd on me her quiet eye��

Yet _more_ than worthy of the love
My spirit struggled with�察�and strove��
When�察�on the mountain peak�察�alone��
Ambition lent it a new tone ´
I had no being ´ but in thee��
    The world�察�and all it did contain
In the earth ´ the air ´ the sea ´
    Its joy ´ its little lot of pain
That was new pleasure  the ideal��
    Dim�察�vanities of dreams by night ´
And dimmer nothings which were real ´
    ��Shadows ´ and a more shadowy light�。�
Parted upon their misty wings��
        And�察�so�察�confusedly�察�became
        Thine image�察�and ´ a name ´ a name��
Two separate ´ yet most intimate things。

I was ambitious ´ have you known
        The passion�察�father�拭�You have not��
A cottager�察�I mark'd a throne
Of half the world as all my own��
        And murmur'd at such lowly lot ´
But�察�just like any other dream��
        Upon the vapour of the dew
My own had past�察�did not the beam
        Of beauty which did while it thro'
The minute ´ the hour ´ the day ´ oppress
My mind with double loveliness。

We walk'd together on the crown
Of a high mountain which look'd down
Afar from its proud natural towers
    Of rock and forest�察�on the hills ´
The dwindled hills� �begirt with bowers
    And shouting with a thousand rills。

I spoke to her of power and pride��
    But mystically ´ in such guise
That she might deem it nought beside
    The moment's converse�察�in her eyes
I read�察�perhaps too carelessly ´
    A mingled feeling with my own ´
The flush on her bright cheek�察�to me
    Seem'd to become a queenly throne
Too well that I should let it be
    Light in the wilderness alone。

I wrapp'd myself in grandeur then��
    And donn'd a visionary crown 
        Yet it was not that Fantasy
        Had thrown her mantle over me ´
But that�察�among the rabble ´ men��
        Lion ambition is chain'd down ´
And crouches to a keeper's hand ´
Not so in deserts where the grand
The wild ´ the terrible conspire
With their own breath to fan his fire。

Look 'round thee now on Samarcand�  �
    Is not she queen of Earth�拭�her pride
Above all cities�拭�in her hand
    Their destinies�拭�in all beside
Of glory which the world hath known
Stands she not nobly and alone��
Falling ´ her veriest stepping´stone
Shall form the pedestal of a throne ´
And who her sovereign�拭�Timour ´ he
    Whom the astonished people saw
Striding o'er empires haughtily
    A diadem'd outlaw ´

O� �human love� �thou spirit given��
On Earth�察�of all we hope in Heaven��
Which fall'st into the soul like rain
Upon the Siroc wither'd plain��
And failing in thy power to bless
But leav'st the heart a wilderness��
Idea� �which bindest life around
With music of so strange a sound
And beauty of so wild a birth ´
Farewell� �for I have won the Earth��

When Hope�察�the eagle that tower'd�察�could see
    No cliff beyond him in the sky��
His pinions were bent droopingly ´
    And homeward turn'd his soften'd eye。
'Twas sunset�此�when the sun will part
There comes a sullenness of heart
To him who still would look upon
The glory of the summer sun。
That soul will hate the ev'ning mist��
So often lovely�察�and will list
To the sound of the coming darkness ��known
To those whose spirits hearken�� as one
Who�察�in a dream of night�察�_would_ fly
But _cannot_ from a danger nigh。

What tho' the moon ´ the white moon
Shed all the splendour of her noon��
Her smile is chilly ´ and her beam��
In that time of dreariness�察�will seem
��So like you gather in your breath��
A portrait taken after death。
And boyhood is a summer sun
Whose waning is the dreariest one 
For all we live to know is known��
And all we seek to keep hath flown ´
Let life�察�then�察�as the day´flower�察�fall
With the noon´day beauty ´ which is all。

I reach'd my home ´ my home no more ´
    For all had flown who made it so ´
I pass'd from out its mossy door��
    And�察�tho' my tread was soft and low��
A voice came from the threshold stone
Of one whom I had earlier known ´
    O� �I defy thee�察�Hell�察�to show
    On beds of fire that burn below��
    A humbler heart ´ a deeper wo ´

Father�察�I firmly do believe ´
    I _know_ ´ for Death�察�who comes for me
        From regions of the blest afar��
Where there is nothing to deceive��
        Hath left his iron gate ajar��
    And rays of truth you cannot see
    Are flashing thro' Eternity 
I do believe that Eblis hath
A snare in ev'ry human path ´
Else how�察�when in the holy grove
I wandered of the idol�察�Love��
Who daily scents his snowy wings
With incense of burnt offerings
From the most unpolluted things��
Whose pleasant bowers are yet so riven
Above with trelliced rays from Heaven
No mote may shun ´ no tiniest fly
The light'ning of his eagle eye ´
How was it that Ambition crept��
    Unseen�察�amid the revels there��
Till growing bold�察�he laughed and leapt
    In the tangles of Love's very hair��

     TO HELEN

HELEN�察�thy beauty is to me
    Like those Nicean barks of yore��
That gently�察�o'er a perfumed sea��
    The weary way´worn wanderer bore
    To his own native shore。

On desperate seas long wont to roam��
    Thy hyacinth hair�察�thy classic face��
Thy Naiad airs have brought me home
    To the glory that was Greece��
And the grandeur that was Rome。

Lo � �in yon brilliant window´niche
    How statue´like I me thee stand��
The agate lamp within thy hand��
    Ah�察�Psyche�察�from the regions which
    Are Holy´land ��

THE VALLEY OF UNREST

_Once_ it smiled a silent dell
Where the people did not dwell��
They had gone unto the wars��
Trusting to the mild´eyed stars��
Nightly�察�from their azure towers��
To keep watch above the flowers��
In the midst of which all day
The red sun´light lazily lay。
_Now_ each visiter shall confess
The sad valley's restlessness。
Nothing there is motionless ´
Nothing save the airs that brood
Over the magic solitude。
Ah�察�by no wind are stirred those trees
That palpitate like the chill seas
Around the misty Hebrides��
Ah�察�by no wind those clouds are driven
That rustle through the unquiet Heaven
Uneasily�察�from morn till even��
Over the violets there that lie
In myriad types of the human eye ´
Over the lilies there that wave
And weep above a nameless grave��
They wave�此 � from out their fragrant tops
Eternal dews come down in drops。
They weep�此 � from
