Of Him I Love Day and Night

...will henceforth tell to every person and age, 
And I stand henceforth bound to what I dream’d; 
And now I am willing to disregard burial-places, and dispense with them;
And if the memorials of the dead were put up indifferently everywhere, even in the room
 where I
 eat or sleep, I should be satisfied; 
And if the corpse of any one I love, or if my own corpse, be duly render’d to powder,
 and
 pour’d in the sea, I shall be satisfied; 
Or if it be distributed to the winds, I s...Read more of this...

What Counsel Has the Hooded Moon

...eneath his feet -- - 
A sage that is but kith and kin 
With the comedian Capuchin? 

Believe me rather that am wise 
In disregard of the divine, 
A glory kindles in those eyes 
Trembles to starlight. Mine, O Mine! 
No more be tears in moon or mist

What Happened

...procured their swords and guns chiefly on the spot;
And the lore of centuries, plus a hundred fights,
Made them slow to disregard one another's rights.

With a unanimity dear to patriot hearts
All those hairy gentlemen out of foreign parts
Said: "The good old days are back -- let us go to war!"
Swaggered down the Grand Trunk Road into Bow Bazaar,

Chimbu Singh from Bikaneer oiled his Tonk jezail;
Yar Mahommed Yusufzai spat an...Read more of this...
