Cranmer-Byng, [1916]\nI crossed the White Stream at its slender source\n When Dawn first cleft the tangle of the stars \n And shook the darkness from her. And I saw,\n Passing a while from the worn tracks of men,\n Islands innumerable environ\u00e8d\n In Nature's colours gold and green. The sky\n Laid the blue mirror of eternity\n Upon the shining waters. One by one\n The clouds sailed out to sea. My random thoughts\n Went wandering where monsters silver-mailed\n Flash down their native streams. I sang the songs\n That swelled with noon and faltered with the dusk\n And failed in the twilight. Then I sought the gleam\n Of cottage eaves amid the moonlit fields.","title":"A Feast of Lanterns: Li Po: The Two Visits","type":"page"}
