Do you not know it yet?
For deeds undoneRankle, and snarl, and hunger for their dueTill there seems naught so despicable as youIn all the grin o' the sun.
Like an old shoeThe sea spurns and the land abhors, you lieAbout the beach of Time, till by-and-byDeath, that derides you too-- Death, as he goesHis ragman's round, espies you, where you stray, With half-an-eye, and kicks you out of his way;And then--and then, who knows But the kind GraveTurns on you, and you feel the convict Worm, In that bl...ack bridewell working out his term, Hanker and grope and crave?
'Poor fool that might--That might, yet would not, dared not, let this be, Think of it, here and thus made over to meIn the implacable night!' And writhing, fainAnd like a lover, he his fill shall takeWhere no triumphant memory lives to makeHis obscene victory vain.
VIII(To J. A. C. ) Fresh from his fastnessesWholesome and spacious, The north wind, the mad huntsman, Halloos on his white houndsOver the grey, roaringReaches and ridges, The forest of ocean, The chace of the world.
