Poems 1918-21, Including Three Portraits and Four Cantos
And another broke in upon this:

“He thinks that we are not gods.”

“And she has been waiting for the scoundrel,

and in a new Sidonian night cap,

And with more than Arabian odours,

God knows where he has been,

She could scarcely keep her eyes open

enter that much for his bail.

Get along now!”

We were coming near to the house,

and they gave another yank to my cloak,

And it was morning, and I wanted to see if she was alone, and resting,

And Cynthia was alone in her bed.

I was stupefied.

I had never seen her looking so beautiful

No, not when she was tunick’d in purple.

Such aspect was presented to me, me recently emerged from my visions,

You will observe that pure form has its value.

“You are a very early inspector of mistresses.

“Do you think I have adopted your habits?”
