Bokardo

...you strike 
The laws, you do no harm. 
To the laws, I mean. To you—
That’s another point of view, 
One you may as well indue 
With some alarm. 

Not the most heroic face 
To present, I grant;
Nor will you insure disgrace 
By fearing what you want. 
Freedom has a world of sides, 
And if reason once derides 
Courage, then your courage hides
A deal of cant. 

Learn a little to forget 
Life was once a feast; 
You aren’t fit for dying yet, 
So don’t be a beast.

...n my adventure brave and new:
Fearless and unperplexed,
When I wage battle next,
What weapons to select, what armour to indue.

The earth takes hues obscure and strange, 
When storm and earthquake linger there.

And so, my friend, it then befell
To many,--most to Lionel,
Whose hope was like the life of youth
Within him, and when dead became
A spirit of unresting flame,
Which goaded him in his distress
Over the world's v...Read more of this...

The Flight Of The Duchess

...es:
It's a long lane that knows no turnings.
One needs but little tackle to travel in;
So, just one stout cloak shall I indue:
And for a stall, what beats the javelin
With which his boars my father pinned you?
And then, for a purpose you shall hear presently,
Taking some Cotnar, a tight plump skinful,
I shall go journeying, who but I, pleasantly!
Sorrow is vain and despondency sinful.
What's a man's age? He must hurry more, that's all;
Cram in a day, what his youth took a yea...Read more of this...
