Licked its tongue into the corners of the evening,
Lingered

Let fall upon its back the soot that falls from chimneys,
Slipped by the terrace, made a sudden leap,
And seeing that it was a soft October night,
Curled once about the house, and fell asleep.

For us in England, with
our one panacea, the North Sea and English Channel,
it is difficult to appreciate the horror of having frontiers
on all sides open to attack, for the Poles early lost con-
trol of what little coast they originally had, retaining
hold only on Danzig, allowing the Teutonic Knights to
take firm root in East Prussia, where their power, often
quelled, but never extinguished,
smouldered
on, a con-
stant menace to its neighbours, destined to bring about
their final ruin.

Now close, ye Nymphs,
Ye Nymphs of Dicte, close the forest-glades,
If haply there may chance upon mine eyes
The white bull's
wandering

Following the herd, or by green pasture lured,
Some kine may guide to the Gortynian stalls.

Thou shalt not steal from Samuel Rogers, nor
Commit--flirtation with the muse of Moore.

The omens in his hand, dividing slow
This sign from that; till, while his head bent low,
Up with a leap thy brother flashed the sword,
Then down upon his neck, and cleft the cord
Of brain and spine.

Are ye unshamèd that ye cannot dim
Your alien brightness to be liker him,
Assume a human passion, and down-lay
Your sweet secureness for congenial fears,
And teach your
cloudless
ever-burning eyes
The mystery of his tears?
