Poems Of Revolt And Satan Unbound Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Poems of Revolt and Satan Unbound Poems Of Revolt Invocation 0 Thou Mother, and mistress, and muse, Through the desperate days of the year, When the ghosts of dead hours haunt the hearth, With compassion and comfort be near. In the whip of a merciless wind, How the world with its weariness writhes, While the barren tree silently points To the fugitive moon in the skies. All my heart is an ember consumed, And my youth is a garment outworn, For the roses of love that is fled, In the present have put forth a thorn. In the pitfalls and snares of the past I have fallen, and sinned against thee, I have bowed to the yoke of the world, I thy poet, thy chosen, born free.

Excerpt from The Rebellion of Hell: A Poem Like the epic poets I have mingled through out, the probable and improbable, in art. Homer in his Iliad mixes mortals and immortals, that is, men and women, with gods and god desses; the first being the probable and the last the improbable. When Neptune rides through the sea to the shore for the purpose of inspiring the troops by means of a speech, and when Venus with wounded hand from the battlefield mounts weeping to heaven, we know that, while such things are improbable, they are necessary to carry on the main design of Homer. Virgil is a te flection of the Greek. The Catholic epics, Dante and Tasso, and the Protestant, Milton, have each used different forms of the improbable, all of which are unlike those of the Iliad. Tasso has his spells and enchantments, Dante his shades and angels, Milton his personal god and devil, and each a mixture of all. But modern Christianity requires another form of expression in heroic poetry aside from any of these. As is seen in The Rebellion, both Heaven and hell are considered as present conditions of mind, divided into the Spiritual and carnal, and fought accordingly. That much is strictly meta physical, thoughts taking human shape and going about as men; and this, according to art, is the improbable. But there is something else.
