Poems by Adelaide Crapsey
Release
... Clanged back the doors that shut my soul ...
Endymion.
... Silver way among the stars and when she yearned o'er him, ...
The Mother Exultant
... When man gathereth for himself the fruits of the vineyard ...
The Lonely Death
... and myself Will lay myself straight in my bed ...
Madness
... .of these Singing I wreathe my pretty wreath ...
The Death of Holofernes
... Thy foe slain - by the hand, by the hand ...
You Nor I Nor Nobody Knows
... Where our lost breath's flying goes ...
Youth
... But me They cannot touch, ...
Perfume of Youth
... Y Yea, straight, mine hands, the ointment rare ...
The Sun-Dial
... Every day, Every day, ...
Angelique
... A flickering light near spent ...
Cradle Song
... his sleep Is safe and sweet and deep ...
The Witch
... Who judged - the wench knew far too much - ...
Languor After Pain
... Settles on eye-lids, on relaxed ...
The Companions
... Three grey women walk with me ...
