dead Are best without it�察�and they own their death By virtue of their dying。 

Let them go�察 �But think you not the world is ashes yet�察�And you have all 

the fire。 The world is here Today�察�and it may not be gone tomorrow�察�For 

there   are   millions�察  �and   there   may   be   more�察  �To   make   in   turn   a   various 

estimation Of   its old ills   and   ashes�察�and   the   traps Of   its apparent   wrath。 

Many with ears That hear not yet�察�shall have ears given to them�察�And then 

they   shall   hear   strangely。   Many   with   eyes   That   are   incredulous   of   the 

Mystery Shall yet be driven to feel�察�and then to read Where language has 

an end and is a veil�察�Not woven of our words。 Many that hate Their kind 

are soon to know that without love Their faith is but the perjured name of 

nothing。 I that have done some hating in my time See now no time for hate�察�

I that have left�察�Fading behind me like familiar lights That are to shine no 

more for my returning�察�Home�察�friends�察�and honors�察 �I that have lost all 

else For wisdom�察�and the wealth of it�察�say now To you that out of wisdom 

has come love�察�That measures and is of itself the measure Of works and 

hope and faith。 Your longest hours Are not so long that you may torture 

them And harass not yourselves�察�and the last days Are on the way that you 

prepare for them�察�And was prepared for you�察�here in a world Where you 

have    sinned    and   suffered�察  �striven   and   seen。   If  you  be   not  so  hot   for 

counting them Before they come that you consume yourselves�察�Peace may 

attend you all in these last days  And me�察�as well as you。 Yes�察�even in 

Rome。 Well�察�I have talked and rested�察�though I fear My rest has not been 

yours�察   �in  which    event�察  �Forgive    one   who    is  only   seven   leagues    From 

Caesar。 When I told you I should come�察�I did not see myself the criminal 

You contemplate�察�for seeing beyond the Law That which the Law saw not。 

But this�察�indeed�察�Was good of you�察�and I shall not forget�察�No�察�I shall not 

forget you came so far To meet a man so dangerous。 Well�察�farewell。 They 

come to tell me I am going now  With them。 I hope that we shall meet

     All you that are enamored of my name And least intent on what most I 

require�察�Beware�察�for my design and your desire�察�Deplorably�察�are not as yet 

the same。 Beware�察�I say�察�the failure and the shame Of losing that for which 

you   now   aspire   So   blindly�察  �and   of   hazarding   entire   The   gift   that   I   was 

bringing when I came。 

     Give as I will�察�I cannot give you sight Whereby to see that with you 

there   are   some   To   lead   you�察  �and   be   led。   But   they   are   dumb   Before   the 

wrangling   and   the   shrill   delight   Of   your   deliverance   that   has   not   come�察�

And shall not�察�if I fail you  as I might。

     So   little   have   you   seen   of   what   awaits   Your   fevered   glimpse   of   a 

democracy Confused and foiled with an equality Not equal to the envy it 

creates�察�That you see not how near you are the gates Of an old king who 

listens fearfully To you that are outside and are to be The noisy lords of 

imminent estates。 

    Rather     be   then   your   prayer   that   you   shall  have    Your   kingdom 

undishonored。 Having all�察�See not the great among you for the small�察�But 

hear their silence�察�for the few shall save The many�察�or the many are to fall 

 Still to be wrangling in a noisy grave。

                     The Flying Dutchman 



    Unyielding in the pride of his defiance�察�Afloat with none to serve or to 

command�察      �Lord   of  himself   at  last�察 �and  all  by  Science�察  �He   seeks   the 

Vanished Land。 

    Alone�察�by the one light of his one thought�察�He steers to find the shore 

from which we came�察 �Fearless of in what coil he may be caught On seas 

that have no name。 

     Into the night he sails�察�and after night There is a dawning�察�though there 

be   no   sun�察  �Wherefore�察  �with   nothing   but   himself   in   sight�察  �Unsighted�察  �he 

sails on。 At last there is a lifting of the cloud Between the flood before him 

and the sky�察�And then  though he may curse the Power aloud That has no 

power to die  

    He steers himself away from what is haunted By the old ghost of what 

has   been   before�察     �Abandoning�察   �as  always�察  �and   undaunted�察    �One   fog´ 

walled island more。

    Observant of the way she told So much of what was true�察�No vanity 

could long withhold Regard that was her due�此�She spared him the familiar 

guile�察  �So   easily   achieved�察 �That   only   made   a   man   to   smile And   left   him 

undeceived。 

    Aware that all imagining Of more than what she meant Would urge an 

end of everything�察�He stayed�察�and when he went�察�They parted with a merry 

word That was to him as light As any that was ever heard Upon a starry 

night。 

     She smiled a little�察�knowing well That he would not remark The ruins 

of a day that fell Around her in the dark�此�He saw no ruins anywhere�察�Nor 

fancied there were scars On anyone who lingered there�察�Alone below the 

stars。

                                On the Way 



       ��Philadelphia�察�1794�� 

       Note。     The   following     imaginary    dialogue    between     Alexander 

Hamilton and Aaron Burr�察�which is not based upon any specific incident in 

American      history�察 �may    be  supposed     to  have   occurred   a  few   months 

previous to Hamilton's retirement from Washington's Cabinet in 1795 and 

a   few   years  before   the  political  ingenuities    of  Burr    who   has  been 

characterized�察  �without   much   exaggeration�察  �as   the   inventor   of   American 

politics  began to be conspicuously formidable to the Federalists。 These 

activities on the part of Burr resulted�察�as the reader will remember�察�in the 

Burr´Jefferson   tie   for   the   Presidency   in   1800�察  �and   finally   in   the   Burr´ 

Hamilton duel at Weehawken in 1804。 



       BURR 

    Hamilton�察�if he rides you down�察�remember That I was here to speak�察�

and so to save Your fabric from catastrophe。 That's good�察�For I perceive 

that you observe him also。 A President�察�a´riding of his horse�察�May dust a 

General and be forgiven�察�But why be dusted  when we're all alike�察�All 

equal�察�and all happy。 Here he comes  And there he goes。 And we�察�by your 

new patent�察�Would seem to be two kings here by the wayside�察�With   our 

two   hats   off   to   his   Excellency。   Why   not   his   Majesty�察  �and   done   with   it�拭�

Forgive me if I shook your meditation�察�But you that weld our credit should 

have eyes To see what's coming。 Bury me first if ´I´ do。 

    HAMILTON 

    There's always in some pocket of your brain A care for me�察�wherefore 

my gratitude For your attention is commensurate With your concern。 Yes�察�

Burr�察�we are two kings�察�We are as royal as two ditch´diggers�察�But owe me 

not your sceptre。 These are the days When first a few seem all�察�but if we 

live�察�We may again be seen to be the few That we have always been。 These 

are the days When men forget the stars�察�and are forgotten。 

    BURR 

    But why forget them�拭�They're the same that winked Upon the world 

when Alcibiades Cut off his dog's tail to induce distinction。 There are dogs

yet�察�and Alcibiades Is not forgotten。 

    HAMILTON 

       Yes�察�there are dogs enough�察�God knows�察�and I can hear them in my 

dreams。 

    BURR 

    Never     a  doubt。   But  what    you   hear  the  most   Is  your   new   music�察�

something   out   of   tune With   your   intention。  How   in   the  name   of   Cain�察  �I 

seem to hear you ask�察�are men to dance�察�When all men are musicians。 Tell 

me that�察�I hear you saying�察�and I'll tell you the name Of S
