Mansfield

It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles,

And see the great Achilles, whom we knew.

Tho' much is taken, much abides; and tho'

We are not now that strength which in old days

Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;

One equal temper of heroic hearts,

Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will

To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Ulysses

Glory be to God for dappled things -

For skies of couple-colored as a brinded cow;

For rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim...

Pied Beauty

Buckle! AND the fire that breaks from thee then, a billion

Times told lovelier, more dangerous, O my chevalier!

No wonder of it: shéer plód makes plough down sillion

Shine, and blue-bleak embers, ah my dear,

Fall, gall themselves, and gash gold-vermilion.

The Windhover

But ah, but O thou terrible, why wouldst thou rude on me

Thy wring-world right foot rock? lay a lionlimb against me? scan

With darksome devouring eyes my bruisèd bones? and fan,

O in turns of tempest, me heaped there; me frantic to avoid thee and flee?

Carrion Comfort

"Isn't life," she stammered, "isn't life—" But what life was she couldn't explain. No matter. He quite understood."Isn't it, darling?" said Laurie.

The Garden Party

Sophocles long ago

Heard it on the Aegean, and it brought

Into his mind the turbid ebb and flow

Of human misery...

Dover Beach

G-r-r-r - there go, my heart's abhorrence!

Water your damned flowerpots, do!

If hate killed men, [you],

God's blood, would not mine kill you!
