THE Sphinx is drowsy, Her wings are furled Her ear is heavy, She
broods on the world. Wholl tell me my secret, The ages have kept I
waited the seer, While they slumbered and slept The fate of the
man-child The meaning of man 10 Known fruit of the unknown
Daedalian plan Out of sleeping a waking, Out of waking a sleep Life
death overtaking Deep underneath deep Erect as a sunbeam,
Upspringeth the palm The elephant browses, Undaunted and calm 20 In
beautiful motion The thrush plies his wings Kind leaves of his
covert, Your silence he sings. EMERSON B THE SPHINX The waves,
unashamed, In difference sweet, Play glad with the breezes, Old
playfellows meet The journeying atoms, Primordial wholes, 3 Firmly
draw, firmly drive, By their animate poles. Sea, earth, air, sound,
silence, Plant, quadruped, bird, By one music enchanted, One deity
stirred, Each the other adorning, Accompany still Night veileth the
morning, The vapour the hill. 40 The babe by its mother Lies bath d
in joy Glide its hours uncounted, The sun is its toy Shines the
peace of all being, Without cloud, in its eyes And the sun of the
world In soft miniature lies. But man crouches and blushes,
Absconds andconceals 50 He creepeth and peepeth, He palters and
steals THE SPHINX 3 Infirm, melancholy, Jealous glancing around, An
oaf, an accomplice, He poisons the ground...
