"After Ch'u Yuan" 

I will get me to the wood

Where the gods walked garlanded in wisteria,

By the silver-blue flood move others with ivory cars.

As transient things are—

The Return

See, they return; ah, see the tentative
Movements, and the slow feet,
The trouble in the pace and the uncertain
Wavering!

See, they return, one, and by one,
With fear, as half-awakened;
As if the snow should hesitate

These were the "Wing'd-with-Awe,"
               Inviolable.
