Modern Love XXVII: Distraction is the Panacea

 Distraction is the panacea, Sir! 
I hear my oracle of Medicine say.
Doctor! that same specific yesterday I tried, and the result will not deter A second trial.
Is the devil's line Of golden hair, or raven black, composed? And does a cheek, like any sea-shell rosed, Or clear as widowed sky, seem most divine? No matter, so I taste forgetfulness.
And if the devil snare me, body and mind, Here gratefully I score:--he seemèd kind, When not a soul would comfort my distress! O sweet new world, in which I rise new made! O Lady, once I gave love: now I take! Lady, I must be flattered.
Shouldst thou wake The passion of a demon, be not afraid.

Modern Love XXXVII: Along the Garden Terrace

 Along the garden terrace, under which 
A purple valley (lighted at its edge 
By smoky torch-flame on the long cloud-ledge 
Whereunder dropped the chariot), glimmers rich, 
A quiet company we pace, and wait 
The dinner-bell in prae-digestive calm.
So sweet up violet banks the Southern balm Breathes round, we care not if the bell be late: Though here and there grey seniors question Time In irritable coughings.
With slow foot The low rosed moon, the face of Music mute, Begins among her silent bars to climb.
As in and out, in silvery dusk, we thread, I hear the laugh of Madam, and discern My Lady's heel before me at each turn.
Our tragedy, is it alive or dead?
