With dying might The light invades The city's hall: Curtained by dripping fringes Of buoyant tattered cloud, Tossed by the wind. It is the last night that I can be solitary; And all my city of dreams is burning up to-night.

Excerpt: ... tugs in the stream; Against the flame-chariots Of the Embankment; Against the bowing trees, Against the blowing smoke, Against the busy rain. With dying might The light invades The city's hall: Curtained by dripping fringes Of buoyant tattered cloud, Tossed by the wind. It is the last night that I can be solitary; And all my city of dreams is burning up to-night. But yet there waits for me something lost back in the darkness: Something I have never seized: a shape, a voice, a gesture, Something behind my shoulder: grey robes that stir and rustle.

It is the last night that I can be solitary: It is the last time that no feet But mine can beat upon the floor; It is the last time that no hands But mine can pound upon my heart; It is the last time that no voice But mine can cry and yet be lost; It is the last time I shall see The pavements like a mirror stare at me. GREEN SYMPHONY I The glittering leaves of the rhododendrons Balance and vibrate in the cool air; While in the sky above them White clouds chase each other. Like scampering rabbits, Flashes of sunlight sweep the lawn; They fling in passing Patterns of shadow, Golden and green.
