Ever; forever; lover and rover
They shall cling; nor each from other shall part
Till the reign of the stars in the heavens be 'over;
And life is dust in each faithful heart。
They are dead; the American grasses under;
There is no one now who presses my side;
By the African chotts I am riding asunder;
And with great joy ride I the last great ride。
I am fey; I am fein of sudden dying;
Thousands of miles there is no one near;
And my heartall the night it is crying; crying
In the bosoms of dead lads darling…dear。
Hearts of my musicthem dark earth covers;
Comrades to die; and to die for; were they;
In the width of the world there were no such rovers
Back to back; breast to breast; it was ours to stay;
And the highest on earth was the vow that we cherished;
To spur forth from the crowd and come back
never more;
And to ride in the track of great souls perished
Till the nests of the lark shall roof us o'er。
Yet lingers a horseman on Altai highlands;
Who hath joy of me; riding the Tartar glissade;
And one; far faring o'er orient islands
Whose blood yet glints with my blade's accolade;
North; west; east; I fling you my last hallooing;
Last love to the breasts where my own has bled;
Through the reach of the desert my soul leaps pursuing
My star where it rises a Star of the Dead。
GEORGE EDWARD WOODBERRY
THE FLIGHT
I
O WILD HEART; track the land's perfume;
Beach…roses and moor…heather!
All fragrances of herb and bloom
Fail; out at sea; together。
O follow where aloft find room
Lark…song and eagle…feather!
All ecstasies of throat and plume
Melt; high on yon blue weather。
O leave on sky and ocean lost
The flight creation dareth;
Take wings of love; that mounts the most:
Find fame; that furthest fareth!
Thy flight; albeit amid her host
Thee; too; night star…like beareth;
Flying; thy breast on heaven's coast;
The infinite outweareth。
II
〃Dead o'er us roll celestial fires;
Mute stand Earth's ancient beaches;
Old thoughts; old instincts; old desires;
The passing hour outreaches;
The soul creative never tires
Evokes; adcres; beseeches;
And that heart most the god inspires
Whom most its wildness teaches。
〃For I will course through falling years
And stars and cities burning;
And I will march through dying cheers
Past empires unreturning;
Ever the world flame reappears
Where mankind power is earning;
The nations' hopes; the people's tears;
One with the wild heart yearning。
GEORGE EDWARD WOODBERRY
