Excerpt from The Lonesome TrailThe Old CryO Mourner in the silence of the hills, 0 Thing of ancient griefs, art thou a wolf?I heard a cry that shook me - was it thine?Low in the mystic purple of the westThe weird moon hangs, a tarnished silver slug:Vast, vast the hollow empty night curves down, Stabbed with the glass-like glinting of the stars, And, save when that wild cry grows up anon, No sound but this dull murmur of the hush -The winter hush.Hark! once again thy cry!Thy strange, sharp, ice-like, tenuous complaint, As though the spirit of this frozen wastePinched with the cruel frost yearned summerward!I know thou art a wolf that criest so:Though hidden in the shadow, I can seeThy four feet huddled in the numbing frost, Thy snout, breath-whitened, pointing to the sky:Poor pariah of the plains, I know 'tis thou.And yet - and yet - I heard a kinsman shout!Down through the intricate centuries it came, A far-blown cry! From old-world graves it grew, Up through the tumbled walls of ancient realms, Up through the lizard-haunted heaps of stone, Up through the choking ashes of old fanes, The pitiful debris where Grandeur dwelt, Out of the old-world wilderness it grew -The cry I know! And I have heard my Kin!About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
