# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/His Recantation

246. HIS RECANTATION.
Love, I recant, And pardon crave That lately I offended; But 'twas, Alas! To make a brave, But no disdain intended.
No more I'll vaunt, For now I see Thou only hast the power To find And bind A heart that's free, And slave it in an hour.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/His Sailing From Julia

35. HIS SAILING FROM JULIA.
When that day comes, whose evening says I'm gone Unto that watery desolation, Devoutly to thy closet-gods then pray That my wing'd ship may meet no remora. Those deities which circum-walk the seas, And look upon our dreadful passages, Will from all dangers re-deliver me For one drink-offering poured out by thee. Mercy and truth live with thee! and forbear (In my short absence) to unsluice a tear; But yet for love's sake let thy lips do this, Give my dead picture one engendering kiss: Work that to life, and let me ever dwell In thy remembrance, Julia. So farewell.
Closet-gods, the Roman Lares. Remora, the sea Lamprey or suckstone, believed to check the course of ships by clinging to their keels.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/His Misery in a Mistress

162. HIS MISERY IN A MISTRESS.
Water, water I espy; Come and cool ye, all who fry In your loves; but none as I.
Though a thousand showers be Still a-falling, yet I see Not one drop to light on me.
Happy you who can have seas For to quench ye, or some ease From your kinder mistresses.
I have one, and she alone, Of a thousand thousand known, Dead to all compassion.
Such an one as will repeat Both the cause and make the heat More by provocation great.
Gentle friends, though I despair Of my cure, do you beware Of those girls which cruel are.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/His Poetry His Pillar

211. HIS POETRY HIS PILLAR.
Only a little more I have to write, Then I'll give o'er, And bid the world good-night.
Tis but a flying minute That I must stay, Or linger in it; And then I must away.
O time that cut'st down all And scarce leav'st here Memorial Of any men that were.
How many lie forgot In vaults beneath? And piecemeal rot Without a fame in death?
Behold this living stone I rear for me, Ne'er to be thrown Down, envious Time, by thee.
Pillars let some set up If so they please: Here is my hope And my Pyramides.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/His Embalming to Julia

327. HIS EMBALMING TO JULIA.
For my embalming, Julia, do but this; Give thou my lips but their supremest kiss, Or else transfuse thy breath into the chest Where my small relics must for ever rest; That breath the balm, the myrrh, the nard shall be, To give an incorruption unto me.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/His Farewell to Sack

128. HIS FAREWELL TO SACK.
Farewell thou thing, time past so known, so dear To me as blood to life and spirit; near, Nay, thou more near than kindred, friend, man, wife, Male to the female, soul to body; life To quick action, or the warm soft side Of the resigning, yet resisting bride. The kiss of virgins, first fruits of the bed, Soft speech, smooth touch, the lips, the maidenhead: These and a thousand sweets could never be So near or dear as thou wast once to me. O thou, the drink of gods and angels! wine That scatter'st spirit and lust, whose purest shine More radiant than the summer's sunbeams shows; Each way illustrious, brave, and like to those Comets we see by night, whose shagg'd portents Foretell the coming of some dire events,
Or some full flame which with a pride aspires, Throwing about his wild and active fires; 'Tis thou, above nectar, O divinest soul! Eternal in thyself, that can'st control That which subverts whole nature, grief and care, Vexation of the mind, and damn'd despair. 'Tis thou alone who, with thy mystic fan, Work'st more than wisdom, art, or nature can To rouse the sacred madness and awake The frost-bound blood and spirits, and to make Them frantic with thy raptures flashing through The soul like lightning, and as active too. 'Tis not Apollo can, or those thrice three Castalian sisters, sing, if wanting thee. Horace, Anacreon, both had lost their fame, Had'st thou not fill'd them with thy fire and flame. Phœbean splendour! and thou, Thespian spring! Of which sweet swans must drink before they sing Their true-pac'd numbers and their holy lays, Which makes them worthy cedar and the bays. But why, why longer do I gaze upon Thee with the eye of admiration? Since I must leave thee, and enforc'd must say To all thy witching beauties, Go, away. But if thy whimpering looks do ask me why, Then know that nature bids thee go, not I. 'Tis her erroneous self has made a brain
Uncapable of such a sovereign As is thy powerful self. Prithee not smile, Or smile more inly, lest thy looks beguile My vows denounc'd in zeal, which thus much show thee That I have sworn but by thy looks to know thee. Let others drink thee freely, and desire Thee and their lips espous'd, while I admire And love thee, but not taste thee. Let my muse Fail of thy former helps, and only use Her inadult'rate strength: what's done by me Hereafter shall smell of the lamp, not thee.
Shagg'd, rough-haired. Mystic fan, the "mystica vannus Iacchi" of Georgic, i. 166. Cedar, i.e., cedar oil, used for the preservation of manuscripts.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/His Protestation to Perilla

154. HIS PROTESTATION TO PERILLA.
Noonday and midnight shall at once be seen: Trees, at one time, shall be both sere and green: Fire and water shall together lie In one self-sweet-conspiring sympathy: Summer and winter shall at one time show Ripe ears of corn, and up to th' ears in snow: Seas shall be sandless; fields devoid of grass; Shapeless the world, as when all chaos was, Before, my dear Perilla, I will be False to my vow, or fall away from thee.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/His Request to Julia

59. HIS REQUEST TO JULIA.
Julia, if I chance to die Ere I print my poetry, I most humbly thee desire To commit it to the fire: Better 'twere my book were dead Than to live not perfected.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/His Lachrymæ; or, Mirth Turned to Mourning

371. HIS LACHRYMÆ; OR, MIRTH TURNED TO MOURNING.
Call me no more, As heretofore, The music of a feast; Since now, alas! The mirth that was In me is dead or ceas'd.
Before I went, To banishment, Into the loathed west, I could rehearse A lyric verse, And speak it with the best.
But time, ay me! Has laid, I see,
My organ fast asleep, And turn'd my voice Into the noise Of those that sit and weep.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/His Parting From Mrs. Dorothy Kennedy

122. HIS PARTING FROM MRS. DOROTHY KENNEDY.
When I did go from thee I felt that smart Which bodies do when souls from them depart. Thou did'st not mind it; though thou then might'st see Me turn'd to tears; yet did'st not weep for me. 'Tis true, I kiss'd thee; but I could not hear Thee spend a sigh t'accompany my tear. Methought 'twas strange that thou so hard should'st prove, Whose heart, whose hand, whose every part spake love. Prithee, lest maids should censure thee, but say Thou shed'st one tear, whenas I went away; And that will please me somewhat: though I know, And Love will swear't, my dearest did not so.

DAVID DRUMMONDRR'rrS destinie, Gude man o appearance o Cargill; I wat his blude rins in the flude, Sae sair against his parents' will. She was the lass o Balathy toun, And he the butler o Stobhall, And mony a time she wauked late To bore the coble o Cargill. His bed was made in Kercock ha, Of gude clean sheets and of [the] hay; He wudna rest ae nicht therein, But on the prude waters he wud gae. His bed was made in Balathy toun, Of the clean sheets and of the strae; But I wat it was far better made Into the bottom o bonnie Tay. She bored the coble in seven pairts, I wat her heart might hae been fu sair; For there she got the bonnie lad lost Wi the curly locks and the yellow hair. He put his foot into the boat, He little thocht o ony ill; But before that he was mid-waters, The weary coble began to fill. 'Woe be to the lass o Balathy toun, I wat an ill death may she die! For she bored the coble in seven pairts, And let the waters perish me. 'Oh, help, oh help, I can get nane, Nae help o man can to me come!' This was about his dying words, When he was choaked up to the chin. 'Gae tell my father and my mother It was naebody did me this ill; I was a-going my ain errands, Lost at the coble o bonnie Cargill.' She bored the boat in seven pairts, I wat she bored it wi gude will; And there they got the bonnie lad's corpse, In the kirk-shot o bonnie Cargill. Oh a' the keys o bonnie Stobha I wat they at his belt did hing; But a' the keys of bonnie Stobha They now ly low into the stream. A braver page into his age Neer set a foot upon the plain; His father to his mother said, 'Oh, sae soon as we've wanted him! 'I wat they had mair luve than this When they were young and at the scule; But for his sake she wauked late, And bored the coble o bonnie Cargill.' 'There's neer a clean sark gae on my back, Nor yet a kame gae in my hair; There's neither coal nor candle-licht Shall shine in my bouir foe evir mair. 'At kirk nor market I'se neer be at, Nor yet a blythe blink in my ee; There's neer a ane shall say to anither, That's the lassie gard the young man die. 'Between the yates o bonnie Stobha And the kirk-style o bonnie Cargill, There is mony a man and mother's son That was at my love's burial.'

# The Gift of Black Folk/Prescript

PRESCRIPT
Who made America? Who made this land that swings its empire from the Atlantic to the Sea of Peace and from Snow to Fire—this realm of New Freedom, with Opportunity and Ideal unlimited?
Now that its foundations are laid, deep but bare, there are those as always who would forget the humble builders, toiling wan mornings and blazing noons, and picture America as the last reasoned blossom of mighty ancestors; of those great and glorious world builders and rulers who know and see and do all things forever and ever, amen! How singular and blind! For the glory of the world is the possibilities of the commonplace and America is America even because it shows, as never before, the power of the common, ordinary, unlovely man. This is real democracy and not that vain and eternal striving to regard the world as the abiding place of exceptional genius with great black wastes of hereditary idiots.
We who know may not forget but must forever spread the splendid sordid truth that out of the most lowly and persecuted of men, Man made America. And that what Man has here begun with all its want and imperfection, with all its magnificent promise and grotesque failure will some day blossom in the souls of the Lowly.
