Christ as its chief ruler and governor, so that

Close to her ear touching the melody;--

Her blue affrayed eyes wide open shone:
Upon his knees he sank, pale as smooth-sculptured stone.

Don Juan himself is almost ascetic in
his desire to avoid that misunderstanding; and so my attempt to bring
him up to date by launching him as a modern Englishman into a modern
English environment has produced a figure
superficially
quite unlike the

Pours coarse laughter on the crowds,

American Poetry - 1922 |

With him, the peerage next in power to you;
And Mentor, captain of the lordly crew,
Or some celestial in his reverend form,
Safe from the secret rock and adverse storm,
Pilot's the course; for when the
glimmering

Of yester dawn disclosed the tender day,
Mentor himself I saw, and much admired,"
Then ceased the youth, and from the court retired.
