                        ANTHOLOGY OF MASSACHUSETTS POETS 



                            THE FLIGHT 



                                            I 



    O   WILD   HEART;   track   the   land's   perfume;   Beach…roses   and   moor… 

heather!   All   fragrances   of   herb   and   bloom   Fail;   out   at   sea;   together。   O 

follow where aloft find room Lark…song and eagle…feather! All ecstasies of 

throat and plume Melt; high on yon blue weather。 

    O leave on sky and ocean lost The flight creation dareth; Take wings 

of love; that mounts the most: Find fame; that furthest fareth! Thy flight; 

albeit amid her host Thee; too; night star…like beareth; Flying; thy breast on 

heaven's coast; The infinite outweareth。 



                                           II 



    〃Dead o'er us roll celestial fires; Mute stand Earth's ancient beaches; 

Old thoughts; old instincts; old desires; The passing hour outreaches; The 

soul creative never tires Evokes; adcres; beseeches; And that heart most 

the god inspires Whom most its wildness teaches。 

    〃For I will course through falling years And stars and cities burning; 

And I will march through dying cheers Past empires unreturning; Ever the 

world   flame   reappears   Where   mankind   power   is   earning;   The   nations' 

hopes; the people's tears; One with the wild heart yearning。
