Excerpt from Monographs
Hyacinthus
Who sports with the gods must die!
Woe, oh woe!
Who prays for the wings must fly,
Fate wills so.
Who mocks at the loving friend
Hath signed his death.
He comes to the silent end
Who scorns love's breath!
Thou, Hyacinthus, thou
Didst spurn thy friend!
Now, Phoebus playmate, now
What is thine end?
The stricken Zephry weeps
Where thy white body sleeps,
The Sun-god lingers near
And drops a shining tear.
Where art thou
Fair pouter now?
In the shades where lovers wait
Message from the loved one's gate -
Dead - alone.
