“What was it that drove these thousands into the arms of his artwhat but the blissfully sensuous, searing, sense-consuming, intoxicating, hypnotically caressing, heavily upholsteredin a word, the luxurious quality of his music?”

Standing alone with smooth arms lifted up,
And every leaf of foliage shed worn
Laid scarlet and pale pink about her feet.”

“Shall the Spring dawn, and she still clad in smiles,
And with an unscathed brow,
Rest in the strong arms of her palm-crowned isles,
As fair and free as now?
We know not; in the temple of the Fates
God has inscribed her doom;
And, all untroubled in her faith, she waits
The triumph or the tomb.”
—Henry Timrod (18281867)
