—Do, mi, so. — Hey, good-night, good moon ! (Arthur Symons. ) A la Promenade (Fetes Galantes. ) THE sky so pale, and the trees, such frail things, Seem as if smiling on our bright array That flits so light and gray upon the way With indolent airs and fluttering as of wings. The fountain wrinkles under a faint wind. And all the sifted sunlight falling through The lime-trees of the shadowy avenue Comes to us blue and shadowy-pale and thinned. PAUL VERLAINE £01 Faultlessly fickle, and yet fond eno...ugh, With fond hearts not too tender to be free, We wander whispering deliciously, And every lover leads a lady-love, Whose imperceptible and roguish hand Darts now and then a dainty tap, the lip Revenges on an extreme finger-tip, The tip of the left little finger, and, The deed being so excessive and uncouth, A duly freezing look deals punishment, That in the instant of the act is blent With a shy pity pouting in the mouth. (Arthur Symons. ) Dans La Grotte (Fetes Galantes. ) STAY, let me die, since I am true, For my distress will not delay.
