rs, Leutha! Sweet smiling Pestilence! I see thy blushing light; Thy daughters, many changing, Revolve like sweet perfumes ascending, Leutha, Silken Queen! 'Where is the youthful Antamon, Prince of the Pearly Dew? Antamon! why wilt thou leave thy mother Enitharmon? Alone I see thee, crystal form, Floating upon the bosom'd air, With lineaments of gratified desire. My Antamon! the seven churches of Leutha seek thy love. 'I hear the soft Oothoon in Enitharmon's tents; Why wilt thou give up woman's secrecy, my melancholy child? Between two moments Bliss is ripe. Theotormon! robb'd of joy, I see thy salt tears flow Down the steps of my crystal house. 'Sotha and Thiralatha! secret dwellers of dreamful caves, Arise and please the horrent Fiend with your melodious songs; Still all your thunders, golden-hoof d, and bind your horses black. Ore! smile upon my children, Smile, son of my afflictions! Arise, Ore, and give our mountains joy of thy red light! She ceas'd; for all were forth at sport beneath the solemn moon Waking the stars of Utizen with their immortal songs; That Nature felt thro' all her pores the enormous revelry, Till Morning oped the eastern gate; Then every one fled to his station, and Enitharmon wept. But terrible Ore, when he beheld the morning in the East, Shot from the heights of Enitharmon, And in the vineyards of red France appear'd the light of his fury. The Sun glow'd fiery red! The furious Terrors flew around On golden chariots, raging with red wheels, dropping with blood! The Lions lash their wrathful tails! The Tigers couch upon the prey and suck the ruddy tide; And Enitharmon groans and cries in anguish and dismay. Then Los arose: his head he rear'd, in snaky thunders clad; And with a cry that shook all Nature to the utmost pole, Call'd all his sons to the strife of blood.  . , , , . . , , . , , , , : " . ; , , . , ! . . , __! - , , , , - . -, ! , ! . , , : , , !" , . . , : " ! , , , , , ? , , ! , ! , , ? , , ? - ? , ? , , . , , ! . , - - - . ? , , ? ? , . , , , , , ! , ! , . ! , ! ! , , , ". : - ! ! , . , : . : , , , - . . , . ; , . , . , , , - , , , . , , , ; , , ; - , , , - , , , , , , , , , - - - ; , ; . , , - , , , , , , , - . , - , , , , - . , , , , - - , , , , - , , , , , . , , , , , . , ; . - , , - , , . , , . , , , , - , , , , ; , . - - ; ; , : , . , , ; ; . , ! , , ; .

FROM "MILTON"  "" x x x And did those feet in ancient time Walk upon England's mountains green? And was the holy Lamb of God On England's pleasant pastures seen? And did the Countenance Divine Shine forth upon our clouded hills? And was Jerusalem builded here Among these dark Satanic Mills? Bring me my Bow of burning gold: Bring me my Arrows of desire: Bring me my Spear: clouds unfold! Bring me my Chariot of fire. I will not cease from Mental Fight, Nor shall my Sword sleep in my hand Till we have built Jerusalem In England's green & pleasant Land. x x x ? ? ? ? , , ? . , . . x x x Thou hearest the Nightingale begin the Song of Spring. The Lark sitting upon his earthy bed, just as the morn Appears, listens silent; then springing from the waving Cornfield, loud He leads the Choir of Day: trill, trill, trill, trill, Mounting upon the wings of light into the Great Expanse, Reechoing against the lovely blue & shining heavenly Shell, His little throat labours with inspiration; every feather On throat & breast & wings vibrates with the effluence Divine All Nature listens silent to him, & the awful Sun Stands still upon the Mountain looking on this little Bird With eyes of soft humility & wonder, love & awe, Then loud from their green covert all the Birds begin their Song: The Thrush, the Linnet & the Goldfinch, Robin & the Wren Awake the Sun from his sweet reverie upon the Mountain. The Nightingale again assays his song, & thro' the day And thro' the night warbles luxuriant, every Bird of Song Attending his loud harmony with admiration & love. This is a Vision of the lamentation of Beulah over Ololon. x x x , - , , . , , - -, -, -, - - . , . , , , , . , , . , , . - - , , - . , . - - , . x x x Thou perceivest the Flowers put forth their precious Odours, And none can tell how from so small a center comes such sweets, Forgetting that within that Center Eternity expands Its ever during doors that Og & Anak fiercely guard. First, e'er the morning breaks, joy opens in the flowery bosoms, Joy even to tears, which the Sun rising dires, first the Wild Thyme And Meadow-sweet, downy & soft waving among the reeds, Light springing on the air, lead the sweet Dance: they wake The Honeysuckle sleeping on the Oak; the flaunting beauty Revels along upon the wind; the White-thorn, lovely May, Opens her many lovely eyes listening; the Rose still sleeps None dare to wake her; soon she bursts her crimson curtain'd bed And comes forth in the majesty of beauty; every Flower, The Pink, the Jessamine, the Wall-flower, the Carnation, The Jonquil, the mild Lilly, opes her heavens; every Tree And Flower & Herb soon fill the air with an innumerable Dance, Yet all in order sweet & lovely. Men are sick with Love, Such is a Vision of the lamentation of Beulah over Ololon. x x x , . , . , , - , . , . . . , , , , . , , . , , , , . , , , . - , , - . , , . , . ... . . {*} {* : Damon S. F.
