He smiled, "The lay Of Yen-Oey perished in his summer day, The lay Ni-Chan,6 the holiest, made, and wept For the young brother sage that earlier slept; The song thy lips forbore but sweet and low Thy clear lute uttered. Are the words not so? 'So soon asleep! Now must the coming years Weep ignorantly their loss they cannot know, And life miss ever what hath never been: We weep to-day, let theirs be sadder tears Who have not seen thee near as we have seen, Who shall but learn a hope died long ago. Alas for flowers untimely winds have broken, That should have scattered seed of following flowers! Alas for ruin of unbuilded towers! Alas for ripening words that die unspoken! But let them weep with sadder tears than ours Who shall but learn a hope died long ago, A world's hope long ago.' But the strain stayed not to the final close: When the sweet refrain's cadenced minor rose With 'let them weep, ' the shivering lute refused; The fifth chord shrieked and snapped." "Yet one long used By a customary chance to every note And married word might come to know by rote An intricate air, and be but so possessed Of its true worth as the numb page, impressed With some choice sentence, of that wealth it owns" Yu-Pe-Ya thought; then, in the careful tones Of one who knows not whom he speaks with yet, He said, "Too rare the times when I have met And talked in equal hours with one of those Whom we call master minstrels; one who knows The answering rhythms, the complex harmonies, The difficult skill, knows the deep mysteries And far traditions of the lute; who hears As lovers see, to whom each look appears Familiar long and yet a fresh surprise Teaching new beauty to accustomed eyes.

Download or read book Augusta Webster: Portraits and Other Poems written by Augusta Webster and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2000-03-02 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Augusta Webster was very widely praised in her own time—Christina Rossetti thought her “by far the most formidable” woman poet. Her work has again come into favour, so much so that Isobel Armstrong and her co-editors of the influential anthology, Nineteenth-Century Women Poets, declare that “there can be no doubt that Augusta Webster ranks as one of the great Victorian poets.” This collection is the first edition of Webster’s poems since 1895. It is a selection of her best work, emphasizing her powerful dramatic monologues and including a substantial number of her lyrics. With an introduction and background documents that highlight the distinctiveness of her work, this edition will help to re-establish Augusta Webster as a major figure of nineteenth-century English literature.

Download or read book Victorian Women Poets written by Virginia Blain and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-21 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been a huge revival of interest in Victorian women's poetry in the last ten years, and it has led to a major reconfiguration of the English poetic landscape of the nineteenth century. This title offers a key selection of poems by 13 Victorian women poets from Christina Rosetti and Felicia Hemans to the witty, iconoclastic May Kendall. The book starts with a substantial general Introduction which places the work of the poets into a context both historical (that of the poems' production) and modern (that of their past and present reception). Each poet's work is introduced by an expansive headnote which tells the story of her life and writing career. The poems all have full explanatory notes to help readers unfamiliar with the period. A Bibliography lists general sources as well as useful further readings. Written in an engaging and accessible manner, the extensive annotations throughout Victorian Women Poets ensure that this fascinating poetry is enjoyable for undergraduate and non-specialist readers.

Download or read book Decadent Verse written by Caroline Blyth and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2009-02-01 with total page 938 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is both an essential resource for undergraduates and graduates studying Victorian and Decadent literature and an instructive work for enthusiastic readers of verse. The wide span of the 1872–1900 epoch enables readers to appreciate in great depth the literary developments that led to the fin de siècle, unlike most studies of this period, which focus solely on the 1890s, with no relation to cultural and historical developments in the previous two important decades.
