by H. D.

Stars wheel in purple， yours is not so rare

as Hesperus， nor yet so great a star

as bright Aldeboran or Sirius，

nor yet the stained and brilliant one of War；

stars turn in purple， glorious to the sight；

yours is not gracious as the Pleiads are

yet disenchanted， cold， imperious face，

when all the others blighted³， reel and fall，

your star， steel-set， keeps lone⁴ and frigid⁵ tryst⁶

to freighted ships， baffled in wind and blast.
