# To Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett, Eighteenth Baron Dunsany

First published in Tryout 5 , No. 11 (November 1919)
As when the sun above a dusky wold, Springs into sight and turns the gloom to gold, Lights with his magic beams the dew-deck'd bow'r, And wakes to life the gay responsive flow'r; So now o'er realms where dark'ning dulness lies, In solar state see shining PLUNKETT rise! Monarch of Fancy! whose ethereal mind Mounts fairy peaks, and leaves the throng behind; Whose soul untainted bursts the bounds of space, And leads to regions of supernal grace: Can any praise thee with too strong a tone, Who in this age of folly gleam'd alone? Thy quill, DUNSANY, with an art divine Recalls the gods to each deserted shrine; From mystic air a novel pantheon makes, And with new spirits fills the meads and brakes; With thee we wander thro' primeval bow'rs, For thou hast brought earth's childhood back, and ours! How leaps the soul, with sudden bliss increas'd, When led by thee to lands beyond the East! Sick of this sphere, in crime and conflict old, We yearn for wonders distant and untold; O'er Homer's page a second time we pore, And rack our brains for gleams of infant lore: But all in vain—for valiant tho' we strive No common means these pictures can revive. Then dawns DUNSANY with celestial light And fulgent visions break upon our sight: His barque enchanted each sad spirit bears To shores of gold, beyond the reach of cares. No earthly trammels now our thoughts may chain; For childhood's fancy hath come back again! What glitt'ring worlds now wait our eager eyes! What roads untrodden beckon thro' the skies! Wonders on wonders line the gorgeous ways, And glorious vistas greet the ravish'd gaze; Mountains of clouds, castles of crystal dreams, Ethereal cities and Elysian streams; Temples of blue, where myriad stars adore Forgotten gods of aeons gone before! Such are thine arts, DUNSANY, such thy skill, That scarce terrestrial seems thy moving quill; Can man, and man alone, successful draw Such scenes of wonder and domains of awe? Our hearts, enraptur'd, fix thy mind's abode In high PEGANA: hail thee as a god; And sure, can aught more high or godlike be Than such a fancy as resides in thee? Delighted Pan a friend and peer perceives As thy sweet music stirs the sylvan leaves; The Nine, transported, bless thy golden lyre: Approve thy fancy, and applaud thy fire; Whilst Jove himself assumes a brother's tone, And vows the pantheon equal to his own. DUNSANY, may thy days be glad and long; Replete with visions, and atune with song; May thy rare notes increasing millions cheer, Thy name beloved, and thy mem'ry dear! 'Tis thou who hast in hours of dulness brought New charms of language, and new gems of thought; Hast with a poet's grace enrich'd the earth With aureate dreams as noble as thy birth. Grateful we name thee, bright with fix'd renown, The fairest jewel in HIBERNIA'S crown.

Preface.
IN gathering together and printing the fugitive poems which make up this little volume, intended for private distribution only, my sole object has been to gratify the wishes of some who are near and dear to me, and who naturally have felt an interest, partial of course, in my occasional short flights into the realm of poetry. That they do not possess any special literary merit no one, I am sure, knows better than I do; and yet I cannot find it in my heart altogether to regret the hours I have spent in devotion to the muse,—wooing her indeed not very successfully, but nevertheless with a sufficient return to afford me some gratification even now. Many of the verses were written when I was very young (but perhaps it is unnecessary to say this), whilst others were composed at a comparatively recent date.

HIRAM POWERS' GREEK SLAVE.
THEY say Ideal Beauty cannot enter The house of anguish. On the threshold stands An alien Image with the shackled hands, Called the Greek Slave: as if the artist meant her, (That passionless perfection which he lent her, Shadowed, not darkened, where the sill expands) To, so, confront man's crimes in different lands, With man's ideal sense. Pierce to the centre, Art's fiery finger!—and break up ere long The serfdom of this world! Appeal, fair stone, From God's pure heights of beauty, against man's wrong! Catch up in thy divine face, not alone East griefs but west,—and strike and shame the strong, By thunders of white silence, overthrown.

# The Mountains of California (Howard)

Grass and the rains and snow,  Trumpet and tribal drum; Across my crests the people go  Over my peaks the people come. Girt with the pelts of lion and hare.  Plodding with oxen wains, Climbing the steeps on a Spanish mare,  Soaring in aeroplanes. Men with their hates and their ires,  Men with their loves and their lust Still shall I reign when their spires  And their castles tumble to dust.

# Spectacles and Eyeglasses, their forms, mounting, and proper adjustment

SPECTACLES AND EYEGLASSES
THEIR FORMS MOUNTING AND PROPER ADJUSTMENT

In the four previous editions of this treatise the statement that no optical glass was made in America stood unchanged. The war has altered this matter and in this edition is given a short account of the production of such glass.
The toric lenses, which were described in the first edition though they were not then commercially obtainable, have become of first importance. The sections dealing with their manufacture and supply have been rewritten, as have those on the newer forms of bifocal lenses.
In this revision the aim has been to keep step with the permanent progress of the arts of the optician rather than to pursue subjects of temporary vogue or novelty.
My thanks are due to Mr. A. Reed Mclntire and to Mr. William L. Wall, on whose practical knowledge as manufacturing opticians I have at all times been able to draw.
This little work is the outgrowth of the instruction on the subject of prescribing spectacle frames which has been given to successive classes at the Philadelphia Polyclinic and College for Graduates in Medicine. The book, like the teaching referred to, is intended to supplement studies in refraction, and to give the student that knowledge of the correct placing of the glasses before the eyes without which the most painstaking measurement of the refraction will frequently fail of practical results. With the popularization, as one may call it, of ophthalmology in the profession, many physicians who prescribe glasses are compelled, by the lack of skilled opticians in their neighborhood, to themselves furnish the spectacles to the patient. To these, it is believed, the knowledge which I have endeavored to impart in these pages will prove especially useful.
Of late years much advance has been made in the art of making efficient, comfortable, and handsome contrivances for holding glasses before the eyes, and the increased use of prismatic and cylindrical lenses has given the fitting of the frames increased importance. Text-books of refraction remain, however, almost devoid of reference to the subject, the scant literature of which is scattered through opticians' trade publications and a few medical periodicals. Free application has been made to such sources, and the indebtedness incurred duly acknowledged in the text.
My thanks are due to my friend and instructor, Dr. Edward Jackson, for many valuable suggestions in writing this treatise, and, indeed, for directing my attention to the need of a book on spectacles. ​Dr. George M. Gould kindly furnished me with some references used in the introduction, and I am indebted to Messrs. Wall & Ochs, Bonschur & Holmes, and J. W. Queen & Co. for a number of cuts.

# Ocean-Thoughts

The strong winds whisper o'er the sea,  Flinging the gray-gnarled ocean's spate; The gray waves lash along the lea.
The lone gulls wings are high and free,  The great seal trumpets for his mate; The high winds drum, the wild winds dree.
The gray shoals roar unceasingly,  Where combers march in kingly state, The crest-crowned monarchs of the sea.
And now, along the lone, white lea,  The surges fade, the winds abate. And the wide sea lies silently.
But far to islands, restlessly  Surges the tide, unreined and great, Forever roaming and forever free.
And thus my soul, forever restlessly,  Longs for the outworld, vast, unultimate, The vasty freedom of the swinging sea, Forever roaming and forever free.

# One Blood Strain

Now autumn comes and summer goes,  And rises in my heart again, As witchfire glimmers through a pool,  The mystic madness of the Dane.
Blue thunder of a foaming sea  Reverberating through my sleep, White billowing sails that fill and flee  Across a wind-swept restless deep—
They speak to me with subtle tongue  Of blue-bright ways my forbears trod, When time the bearded Vikings bent  Their oars against the winds of God.
And I am but a common man  Who treads a dreary way ashore, But oceans thunder in my dreams, And blue waves break on creaking beams, And foaming water swirls and creams  About the strongly bending oar.
When summer goes and autumn comes  To paint the leaves with sombre fires, I feel, like throbs of distant drums,  The urge of distant nameless sires.

# Orientia

From a letter to Tevis Clyde Smith, June 23, 1926
Orientia
Castinet, castanet!
When the floating sun has set,
And the silver splendor falls
Of the moon on harem walls,
Hear the bangles clashing chime—
While feet flit in dreamy rhyme.
Dark eyes flashing in the dusk
Luring scents of spice and musk,
White roofs ’neath a gen-set sky,
Floating songs from the dim serai.
Castinet, castanet!
Through the years I hear you yet.
Through the years of toil and fret.
Castinet, castanet!
