# Ephemera (Buck)/Circe

CIRCE
Bathed in the flooding moonlight, thy golden palace gleams amidst the whispering pines and cypress trees. From the wide open doors, the road winds like a pale ribbon across the fields to the dark line of the shore.
Within thy palace, lamps are burning, harps and citherns whisper and sigh of love; and the laughter of thy guests, the clashing of cups and dishes, echo among the trees.
But thou—thou standest alone, high on the terrace. The moonlight covers thee like a misty veil through which thy jewels flash like living eyes.
How beautiful, how darkly, deadly beautiful thou art! How black thine unbound hair, how deep thine eyes! How like a spirit of the night as thou standest, with arms outstretched, murmuring strange words above the smoking incense, while the hoarse croakings of the frogs, the shrieks of flitting bats, resound like sweetest music in thine ears!
# Ephemera (Buck)/Advice

ADVICE
Impatient, rosy child, if thou art weary of thy maidenhood, since no man loves thee, take thy youth to the son of Dionysos in the temple garden; and afterward, love where thou canst . . .
When thou art all a woman, thy cheeks will not flood with crimson when thou art spoken to: thou wilt not stammer and look toward the ground. Nor will the longing of thine eyes know fear.
Yet, love is both virgin and voluptuous to the desire of men. And when, in times to come, thy limbs are warm and bright, when even the burning ardor of the goddess is thy friend, thou wilt reveal a passionate semblance of maidenhood to set thy lovers' hearts aflame.
# Ephemera (Buck)/Astarte

ASTARTE
Divine Astarté, because I also am a woman, I adore thee. With my blood pulsing to the song of life, with my body, supple and languorous and mine eager soul, I worship thee, O Spirit of the World.
Goddess, when thine hand touches me for an instant, I swoon, my flesh quivers and mine eyes are blinded. The sun shrouds in a cloak of purple; the moon burns like a crimson disc among the stars; the wide spaces of infinity envelop me; despair and exultation unite within mine heart.
Yet for such as I thou reignest, Astarté—robed in scarlet and flaming with desire. And, outstretched alone upon my couch among the shadows, I adore thee—I who am also a woman—Eternal Queen of mine own Mystery.
# Ephemera (Buck)/At the Games

AT THE GAMES
Well run, Lysippos! Well run, O gleaming arrow! Artemis herself is not one half so fleet!
(By Zeus! nor half so marvelously agile—that I swear! See how the gliding muscles of his thighs ripple beneath the skin. Behold the slender waist, the broad, smooth bosom stirred by the breath of conflict.)
Ah! The laurel! The laurel to the guide of winds! . . . Ho, Nisos, why limpest thou? Ho, ho! Thou wert outrun a thousand times, thou feigner of accidents!
(No wonder that, when he shows himself on the Agora, even the cheeks of the old men grow pale; no wonder the philosophers cease their windy nothings and gaze abashed—But they are all fools! . . . Listen, I will tell thee a great secret . . . It is I he loves! It is I he loves! . . . Ah! . . . By Zeus! he is coming this way!)
# Ephemera (Buck)/Delphi

DELPHI
On the wide green slopes of Parnassus there is a marble temple, a very holy temple in the eyes of men, where a god speaks in a mysterious way.
Purified by the ritual ablutions, clad in spotless white and crowned with laurel, a young priestess, very pale and very beautiful, approaches the dread chasm which opens upon the underworld.
Her flesh quivers at the approaching ecstasy, her breast rises and falls in the divine afflation, her eyes darken with prophecy. How frail she is to be the mouthpiece of a god! . . . But at length her limbs relax, her head falls forward and, very slowly, she begins to speak.
But I—I love the simple gods of the woods and fields; they are nearer, they speak more gently, and their voice is the song of birds and the murmurings of the night.

# Ephemera (Buck)/Ashes of Desire

ASHES OF DESIRE
How soft this couch of thine! Beneath my tingling nudity, its glowing silken covers scarcely seem to bear me up . . . Let me lie so awhile, laved in the utter silence of the flesh.
Spread out hair like waves about my head . . . A moistened tendril clings to my weary lips. Draw it away for me, so that I need not stir even a finger to complete my peace.
How fair these moments—and how dearly bought! . . . Alas! . . . Yet be not hurt because I call them dearly bought. Thou art a man—thou couldst not understand. Nor couldst thou know I love thee more for them than for all other things . . .
# Ephemera (Buck)/Copper and Gold

COPPER AND GOLD
Browned by the desert sun and the swift wind, lithe and strong, thine eyes aflame with conquest, thou seekest me out; thou layest thine hand upon me.
Beside thee, I pale; and yet, because I am a woman, I can bear thine hand upon me and thy kiss upon my lips. I have become precious as a rare jewel because thou lovest me; and strong because I have looked upon thee and I have known thee, O my Well-Belovèd.
And I will love thee not only in the night when the soft air breathes of the slumbering flowers, but also in the flaring mid-day when the light of thine eyes blinds me and the world throbs in the glory of the sun.

Ex Parte Ferry Company
PETITION for a writ of prohibition.
James H. Cuddy exhibited his libel against the steamer 'Garland,' her engines, &c., in the District Court of the United States for the Eastern District of Michigan, alleging that he was the father of David Cuddy and William H. Cuddy, aged respectively ten and thirteen years, passengers on board a steam yacht bound up the Detroit River, when she was sunk by the 'Garland,' whereby they were drowned, and he was deprived of their earnings, services, and society. The sinking of the yacht and their death are charged to be the direct result of the engligence and unskilfulness of the 'Garland.'
In a supplemental libel he alleges that he was duly appointed administrator of the estate of each of his sons, and he charges that he is entitled to damages in the sum of $4,000 for their death, not only by virtue of his relationship, but as their personal representative, his right in that behalf being created by the law of Michigan.
The 'Garland' was seized. On the application of the Detroit River Ferry Company, the claimant, she was appraised and surrendered. The company now prays for a writ from this court to prohibit the proceedings, as beyond the jurisdiction of the District Court.
Mr. Henry C. Wisner for the petitioner.
Mr. Alfred Russell, contra.

Ex Parte Ferry Company
This case is, in all its material facts, like that of Ex parte Gordon, supra, p. 515. It matters not that the amount demanded in the libel is less than $5,000, and that consequently no appeal will lie to this court. An appeal will lie to the Circuit Court in favor of the libellant if he is defeated, and in favor of the respondent if the recovery exceeds $50. It is no ground for relief by prohibition that provision has not been made for a review of the decision of the court of original jurisdiction, by appeal or otherwise. A prohibition cannot be made to perform the office of a prceeding for the correction of mere errors and irregularities. If there is jurisdiction, and no provision for appeal or writ of error, the judgment of the trial court is the judgment of the court of last resort, and concludes the parties. It rests with Congress to decide whether a case shall be reviewed or not.
Writ denied.
