In shillings and in pence at first they deal;
And steal so little, few perceive they steal;
Till, like the sea, they compass all the land,
From Scots to Wight, from mount to Dover strand:
And when rank widows purchase
luscious

Or when a duke to Jansen punts at White's,
Or City-heir in mortgage melts away;
Satan himself feels far less joy than they.

Along the reaches of the street
Held in a lunar synthesis,
Whispering lunar incantations
Disolve the floors of memory
And all its clear relations,
Its divisions and precisions,
Every street lamp that I pass
Beats like a
fatalistic
drum,
And through the spaces of the dark
Midnight shakes the memory
As a madman shakes a dead geranium.

I daren't send this by another,
I have such fear of her disdain,
Nor go myself, and go in vain,
Nor
forcefully
make love to her;
Yet she must know I am better
Since she heals my wound again.

_Emmonsail's Heath in Winter_
I love to see the old heath's withered brake
Mingle its
crimpled
leaves with furze and ling,
While the old heron from the lonely lake
Starts slow and flaps his melancholy wing,
And oddling crow in idle motions swing
On the half rotten ashtree's topmost twig,
Beside whose trunk the gipsy makes his bed.
