Poems by Arthur Symons
The One Desire
... and then I pray to your body again, ...
The Dream
... I have loved, not Love, but a pale, ...
On The Palatine
... So I, from this heart's crowded home, ...
Arab Love-Song
... I have loved, and I have loved, perhaps, too much ...
The Armenian Dancer
... I shudder, and touch delight, ...
The Caged Bird
... I, Its keeper, taught it that the cage was love ...
The Prison
... Sleepless with hate and with the ache of thought, ...
Stella Maris
... And your soft breast that heaves and dips, ...
The Regret
... The hopeless first oblivious tears, were shed, ...
The Desire Of The Heart
... The dust: from the heart, and a way for the heart ...
Wasted Beauty
... It shall desire and its labour be lost, it shall not have its will ...
A Masque Of Shadows
... Drink deep of the passion of their scent, ...
To Our Lady Of The Seven Sorrows
... Therefore you shall be neither blessed nor cursed, ...
Roman Meditation
... Forth from Time's sling through endless ways, ...
To A Portrait
... We are two ghosts that had their chance to live, ...
