Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Norseman: A Drama in Four Acts This tale, that runs not smooth, of two who loved, - Of two who loved transcendently, and so Turned the gods' eyes upon them, and drew down Hatreds, and obstacles, and plotted woe, E'en such as all the great, dead lovers knew, Ere they beheld and reached their final goal, Ere, in the twilight portals of the stars, Rejoined they each his dear, divided soul, - Not singly stands this tale! No perfect thing Earth's envy spares, nor spares fate's black despite! So 't was ordained, for Love's high 'venturers, To tread the dim abysses of the night, Onward, by Aengus and fair Edain, led; Maddened by visions, hemmed by phantoms 'round; Yet blessed beyond earth's easeful votaries, - Love-loosed from all things lesser than the sound Of their own vows, breathed on the moon-bright air; Veiled, as was Forgael, from the blight of time, Enmeshed, at last, in sweet Dectora's hair!
