...the roses rent away. 
And her faire brest the threasury of ioy,
She spoyld therof, and filled with annoy.

His palled face impictured with death,
She bathed oft with teares and dried oft:
And with sweet kisses suckt the wasting breath,
Out of his lips like lillies pale and soft.
And oft she cald to him, who answerd nought,
But onely by his lookes did tell his thought.

The rest of her impatient regret,
And piteous mone the which she for him made:

...s born to be Aunt Imogen. 
Now she could see the truth and look at it; 
Now she could make stars out where once had palled 
A future’s emptiness; now she could share 
With others—ah, the others!—to the end
The largess of a woman who could smile; 
Now it was hers to dance the folly down, 
And all the murmuring; now it was hers 
To be Aunt Imogen.—So, when Young George 
Woke up and blinked at her with his big eyes,
And smiled to see the way she blinked at him,

...ory, that this man loves you no more. 
Your beauty is no beauty to him now: 
A common chance--right well I know it--palled-- 
For I know men: nor will ye win him back, 
For the man's love once gone never returns. 
But here is one who loves you as of old; 
With more exceeding passion than of old: 
Good, speak the word: my followers ring him round: 
He sits unarmed; I hold a finger up; 
They understand: nay; I do not mean blood: 
Nor need ye look so scared at what I say...Read more of this...

Ins and outs, weaving a new legislature---
God's gold just shining its last where that lodges,
Palled beneath man's usurpature.

XXIV.

So we o'ershroud stars and roses,
Cherub and trophy and garland;
Nothings grow something which quietly closes
Heaven's earnest eye: not a glimpse of the far land
Gets through our comments and glozes.

Ah but traditions, inventions,

So many men with such various inten...Read more of this...



by Tennyson, Alfred Lord
...burnt, and blinded as I was, 
With such a fierceness that I swooned away-- 
O, yet methought I saw the Holy Grail, 
All palled in crimson samite, and around 
Great angels, awful shapes, and wings and eyes. 
And but for all my madness and my sin, 
And then my swooning, I had sworn I saw 
That which I saw; but what I saw was veiled 
And covered; and this Quest was not for me." 

`So speaking, and here ceasing, Lancelot left 
The hall long silent, till Sir Gawain--nay,

by Neruda, Pablo
...great roots of night 
grow suddenly from your soul, 
and the things that hide in you come out again 
so that a blue and palled people 
your newly born, takes nourishment. 

Oh magnificent and fecund and magnetic slave 
of the circle that moves in turn through black and gold: 
rise, lead and possess a creation 
so rich in life that its flowers perish 
and it is full of sadness....Read more of this...
