282 THE EQUINOX SIMPLEX. Behold again: an empty well— A crystal pure—a dry sea— Birds—a dead bird, a live bird, a phœnix— A dying immortal harlot-goddess— A cage (alas! it broke open In the year of the sixteenth Funeral). THE MOB. Down with the birds! SIMPLICIOR. Yet, neither Bird could re-enter it! THE MOB. Beer and Cup-ties! SIMPLICISSIMUS. [Pointedly.] The Spirit of Persistency conceived! THE MOB. Down with the Spirits! SIMPLEX. Behold again, Impatients, and decide: Two centres I saw, that were but one— A thick set of hair upon a white skull— A spider patient (with my qualities), Slowly webbing the slightly soiled cavities— A lute, a rapturing lute aux sons clairs, (But Oh, He, Ho, for three weary years The lute hath no song!)—
EHE! THE MOB. Down with the foreign bands! SIMPLEX. [Pale, but firm.] A rotten corpse, Coming to life again (for it cried)— A deep, deep hole—a beardy man—and Linking, SIMPLICIOR. [Radiant.] Clearly linking, SIMPLEX. the 6 (or 7— The Spider counting as the skull's paying guest) The Stream fro Heaven unto Us poured— THE MOB. Down with 'em! SIMPLEX. [Smiling.] Proving our love's old age in a youth renewed! SIMPLICISSIMUS. [Exultant.] The Spirit of Persistency growing! THE MOB. Hooray! GEORGE RAFFALOVICH. 283

Behold again, Impatients, and decide:<br />
Two centres I saw, that were but one—<br />
A thick set of hair upon a white skull—<br />

Slowly webbing <strong>the</strong> slightly soiled cavities—<br />
A lute, a rapturing lute aux sons clairs,<br />
(But Oh, He, Ho, for three weary years<br />
