月亮与六便士

1.
I froget who it was that recommended men for their soul’s good to do each day two things they
dislike: it was a wise man, and it is precept that I have followed scrupulously; for every day I have
got up and I have gone to bed.
2.
There seemed to me something alarming in such easy delights. In my heart was a desire to live more
dangerously.
3.
I do not know what infinite yearning possesses you, so that you are driven to a perilous, lonely search
for some goal where you except to find a final release from the spirit that torments you.
4.
Sometimes a man hits upon a place to which he mysteriously feels that he belongs. Here is the home
he sought , and he will settle amid scenes that he was never seen before, among men he was never
known, as though they were familiar to him from his birth. Here at last find rest.
5.
The world was full of odd persons, who did odd things; and perhaps they knew that a man is not what
he wants to be , but what he wants to be.

I could not bear the thought that I should ever lose you
Or that our lives might ever be disjoined,
But yet I knew that in your wanton heart
There was for me nor love nor tenderness
To many another I saw you give unwanted kisses,
But when I sought to break the chain that bound me
You twined your slim soft arms about my neck
And would not let me go.
Humbly I thanked you when you feigned to love me.
I bought your gruding lips for gold.
And now the love I thought would last till death is dead.
Ah, where is that highp ower that you had
To make the heavens golden with a smile
Or with a careless word to cloud the summer day
In weariness, and not in death orp arting, is
The biterness of love. Spent is myp assion
Like ariver dried up by the sun’s fierce rays.
I look into my empty hear and shrink dismayed:
My soul is like a desert, and the wild wind blows
In its silent, barren spaces.

The night-birds build their nests amid the tombs
Of Kings. My eyes rest on you sadly. I regret
Myp ain, my rapture, my anguish and my bliss.

Or that our lives might ever be disjoined,

But yet I knew that in your wanton heart

There was for me nor love nor tenderness

To many another I saw you give unwanted kisses,

But when I sought to break the chain that bound me

You twined your slim soft arms about my neck

And would not let me go.

Humbly I thanked you when you feigned to love me.

I bought your gruding lips for gold.

Ah, where is that highp ower that you had

To make the heavens golden with a smile
