Wilfrid Scawen Blunt - Esther, A Sonnet Sequence: XLII

2014-11-10 1 Dailymotion

And so we went our way,--yes, hand in hand, <br />Like two lost children in some magic wood <br />Baffled and baffling with enchanter's wand <br />The various beasts that crossed us and withstood. <br />Each step was an experience. Every mood <br />Of that fair woman a fresh gospelling, <br />Which spoke aloud to me and stirred my blood <br />To a new faith, I knew not with what sting. <br />One thing alone I knew or cared to know, <br />Her strange companionship thus strangely won. <br />The past, the future, all of weal or woe <br />In my old life was gone, for ever gone. <br />And still to this I clung as one who clings <br />To hope's last hencoop in the wreck of things.<br /><br />Wilfrid Scawen Blunt<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/esther-a-sonnet-sequence-xlii/
