Poems by Harriet Monroe
A Portrait
... Not homeward could the winged feet fare, ...
The Night-Blooming Cereus
... She hath hearkened to singing more silvern, seen raptures more bright ...
A Garden In The Desert
... The mountains at the world's bounds ...
From the Commemoration Ode
... Then the worn chains shall slip from mans desire, &emsp ...
The Turbine
... Will walk in darkness through the liquid night, Submerged ...
At Twilight
... Have I chalked out a sketch in my rhyme ...
The Woman
... We have over-strained your strength, we have over-trusted ...
The Sage
... Fierce fires have stripped you naked- ...
A Farewell
... That the winged joy, sweet honey-loving rover, ...
The Shadow-Child
... But with the- wheels your feet must run ...
To Idleness
... Tell them to twine their wreaths round yonder brow, ...
The Inner Silence
... Great suns might there beat out their measures slow ...
The Tower
... And there, with soft prayers muttered slow, ...
The Thief On The Cross
... Nailed by his brothers on the cross, he cursed his God and died ...
Titanic Requiem
... Lovers of life, who life could give, ...
