Excerpt from A Flagon of Song Proem I. If I should gather up my waste-worn hours, Dead blooms of passion heaped about my feet, And breathe again their mellow fragrance sweet And drowsy with the love wan time endowers, If all the squandered wealth of time were mine Years of ambition mute, the refuse stale Flung into chaos potent to exhale Hopes, weak and shameful, still to me divine, If all the winds of wedded heaven and hell Bore up my soul to search the dizziest height, If every memory of far delight Flooded desire upon one boundless swell, While still I hold omnipotence and seem One with all time, what shall mine anguish be When dark derisive deeps in agony Awake me to the horror of a dream!
