My heart in hiding Stirred for a bird, — the achieve of, the mastery of the thing! Brute beauty and valor and act, oh, air, pride, plume, here Buckle! AND the fire that breaks from thee then, a billion Times told lovelier, more dangerous, O my chevalier! No wonder of it : sheer plod makes plow down sillion Shine, and blue-bleak embers, ah my dear.
