redoubled
by a principle of incompletion.

The poet shall look grander in the face
Than even of old (when he of Greece began
To sing "that Achillean wrath which slew
So many heroes")--seeing he shall treat
The deeds of souls heroic toward the true,
The oracles of life, previsions sweet
And awful like divine swans gliding through
White arms of Ledas, which will leave the heat
Of their escaping godship to endue
The human medium with a
heavenly
flush.

Resembled the point of a pin;
So she had it made sharp, and
purchased
a harp,
And played several tunes with her chin.
