I passed it on my weary way in worry,
I and my brawny mount in the morning haze,
My mount: a camel, onager-swift, strong-spined
her withers smooth as a dune on a windless day,
A nine-year tush has
replaced
her seven-year tooth,
not too young or too old, in the prime of age
Like a wild ass gone rushing through the reeds,
dark-furred with fight-scars round the neck and face.

In Wagner's music, in his doctrine, in his whole
concept of art, Nietzsche saw the confirmation, the
promotion—aye, even the encouragement, of that
decadence and
degeneration
which is now rampant
in Europe; and it is for this reason, although to the
end of his life he still loved Wagner, the man and
the friend, that we find him, on the very eve of his
spiritual death, exhorting us to abjure Wagner the
musician and the artist.

My point here is that “Russia” as a general subject matter has political priority over
nicer distinctions such as
“economics”
and “literary history,” because political society in
Gramsci’s sense reaches into such realms of civil society as the academy and saturates them with
significance of direct concern to it.

Which ever the destroyer yet destroy'd,
Amidst the roar of liberated Rome,
Of nations freed, and the world overjoy'd,
Some hands unseen strew'd flowers upon his tomb:
Perhaps the weakness of a heart not void
Of feeling for some

done, when power
Had left the wretch an uncorrupted hour.
