long ago� �But here in the shadows I wait�察�I wait� �

    Spirits there be that pass in peace�察      �Mine passed in a whorl of wrath 

and dole�察�And the hour that your choking breath shall cease              I will get 

my grip on your naked soul          Nor pity may stay nor prayer cajole I 

would drag ye whining from Hell's own gate�此             �To me�察�to me�察�ye   must 

pay the toll� �And here in the shadows I wait�察�I wait� �

    The dead they are dead�察�they are out of the way�拭          �And a ghost is the 

whim     of  an  ailing  mind�拭  �Then    why   did  ye  whiten   with   fear  to´day 

When ye heard a voice in the calling wind�拭          �Why did ye falter and look 

behind At the creeping mists when the hour grew late�拭              �Ye would see 

my face were ye stricken blind� �And here in the shadows I wait�察�I wait� �

    Drink and forget�察�make merry and boast�察            �But the boast rings false 

and the jest is thin In the hour that I meet ye ghost to ghost�察        �Stripped 

of the flesh that ye skulk within�察       �Stripped to the coward soul 'ware of 

its   sin�察  �Ye   shall   learn�察  �ye   shall   learn�察  �whether  dead   men  hate� �

Ah�察�a weary time has the waiting been�察�But here in the shadows I wait�察�I 

wait� �

      A NIGHTMARE 

    LEAGUES   before   me�察  �leagues   behind�察       �Clamor   warring   wastes   of 

flood�察�All the streams of all the worlds         Flung together�察�mad of mood�察�

Through      the  canon   beats   a  sound�察     �Regular     of  interval�察 �Distant�察�

heart     And called for sympathy。

side�察�And whispered�此 �Peacedo I not know�拭            �My son was crucified� ─�

     ;O Mother Mary�察─  �answered she�察           �You   cannot�察�cannot   enter in To

frightened ghost       Whimpering overhead。�� 

    The mother by the gallows´tree�察          �The gallows´tree�察�the gallows´tree�察�

Lifted to Christ her broken heart        And called in agony。

comforted�察�I know your grief�察�the whole world's woe                I bore upon my

    What is the secret the slim reeds know That makes them to shake and 

to shiver so�察�And the scared flags quiver from plume to foot�拭�The frogs 

pipe    solemnly�察   �deep    and   slow�此   �Look     under                   the   root� �

Look under                                        the root� ─�

     The hoarse frog croaks and the stark owl hoots Of a mystery moored 

in the cypress roots。 

    Was it love turned hate�拭       �Was it friend turned foe�拭�Only the frogs and 

the gray owl know�察        �For the white moon shrouded her face in a mist At 

the spurt of a pistol�察�red and bright At the sound of a shriek that stabbed 

the night      And the little reeds were frightened and whist�察�But always 

the eddies whimper and choke�察�And the frogs would tell if they could�察�for

your   bonds   and   away�察  �away�      �Ye   must   come   where   I   wait   ye�察  �soon

     Three   times   I   have   cast   my   words   to   the   wind�察�And   thrice   to   the

shore� �It is I that ye hear in the calling wind I have stared through the 

dark till my soul is blind�       �O lover of mine�察�ye swore�察         �Lover of mine�察�

     Oh�察�why do they hunt so hard�察�so hard�察�who have                    no need of food�拭�

Do they  hunt for   sport�察 �do they  hunt for hate�察�do                they hunt   for   the

bright�察�And yonder the quarry breaks from the brush and                         heads for 

the hills in flight�察�

     What is the thought that holds her thrall�察             �That dims her sight with 

unshed tears�拭�What songs of sorrow droop and fall                  In broken music for 

her ears�拭�What voices thrill her and recall              The poignant joy of happier 

years�拭�

     She dreams 'tis not the winds which pass                That whisper through the 

shaken   vine�察  �Whose       footstep   stirs   the  rustling   grass    None   else    that
