Poems by George William Russell
Duality
... Whose passionate peace is still to be at strife, ...
Transformations
... Glowed in the vast with burning hill and glittering stream, ...
Prayer
... Shut the eyes that flame and hush the heart that burns: ...
The Hour of the King
... When he wakes, the dreamy-hearted, ...
A Midnight Meditation
... She roams along the thought-swept fields of light, ...
A Call
... Half I tread the dew-wet grasses, half wander there ...
Inheritance
... In rumours round your childhood strayed: ...
Three Counsellors
... Who called Awake, prepare for fight: ...
The Fountain of Shadowy Beauty
... The boat of crystal touched the shore, ...
Twilight by the Cabin
... The bars On the gateway would not hold: ...
The Mountaineer
... While veil after veil takes flight ...
The Seer
... And all about and through the gloom ...
In the Womb
... The unbudding hedgerows dark against days fires ...
The Memory of Earth
... Flashed the spear and fell the stroke ...
The Grey Eros
... Mix thy youth with thoughts like those ...
