...like that we broke from then. 
Hark! the horn of combat calls -- 
Ere the golden evening falls, 
May we pledge that horn in triumph round.

Many a heart that now beats high, 
In slumber cold at night shall lie, 
Nor waken even at victory's sound: -- 
But oh how blest that hero's sleep, 
O'er whom a wondering world shall weep!...Read more of this...



by Browning, Robert
...Burningly it came on me all at once,
This was the place! those two hills on the right,
Crouched like two bulls locked horn in horn in fight;
While to the left, a tall scalped mountain...Dunce,
Dotard, a-dozing at the very nonce,
After a life spent training for the sight!

What in the midst lay but the Tower itself?
The round squat turret, blind as the fool's heart,
Built of brown stone, without a counterpart
In the whole world. The tempest's mocking ...Read more of this...

by Brooke, Rupert
...In a flowered dell the Lady Venus stood,
Amazed with sorrow. Down the morning one
Far golden horn in the gold of trees and sun

Forgot to dance. Dumb lay the unfalling stream;
Life one eternal instant rose in dream
Clear out of time, poised on a golden height. . . .

Till a swift terror broke the abrupt hour...Read more of this...

...d plumed 
We entered in, and waited, fifty there 
Opposed to fifty, till the trumpet blared 
At the barrier like a wild horn in a land 
Of echoes, and a moment, and once more 
The trumpet, and again: at which the storm 
Of galloping hoofs bare on the ridge of spears 
And riders front to front, until they closed 
In conflict with the crash of shivering points, 
And thunder. Yet it seemed a dream, I dreamed 
Of fighting. On his haunches rose the steed, 
And into fiery s...Read more of this...

...oes and the ten-tined buck made a marvellous bound,
The hounds swept after with never a sound,
But Alan loud winded his horn in sign that the quarry was nigh.

For at dawn of that day proud Maclean of Lochbuy to the hunt had waxed wild,
And he cursed at old Alan till Alan fared off with the hounds
For to drive him the deer to the lower glen-grounds:
"I will kill a red deer," quoth Maclean, "in the sight of the wife
and the child."

So gayly he paced with the wife and ...Read more of this...
