What! shall all thwartings of malignant chance - ZaunköniG - 23.07.2007 What! shall all thwartings of malignant chance Set any bar to this impassioned trust? I will assail these gates of circumstance And break their iron hinges to the dust. Nay! are you pallid in the eye of the sun? Do cold winds blow you from the midmost fire? Or does the journey ere 'tis well begun Speak with less eager lure to your desire? Your look corrodes the metal of my heart. Are we then tainted with a pallid cast Of ghostly moonlight? All the foes that start From ambush do not fright me as this last, This sudden web of weakness round us grown. . . . One gate we cannot storm. It is our own. . . . |
