Poem 303
J303 |
The soul selects her own society, |
|
Then shuts the door |
|
To her divine majority |
|
Present no more, |
|
Unmoved, she notes the the chariots pausing |
5 |
At her low gate; |
|
Unmoved, an emperor be kneeling |
|
Upon her mat﹒ |
|
I've known her from an ample nation _ |
|
Choose one |
10 |
Then close the valve of her attention |
|
Like stone. |
