Margaret Fuller Poem by Amos Bronson Alcott
Margaret Fuller
THOU, Sibyl rapt! whose sympathetic soul
Infused the myst’ries thy tongue failed to tell;
Though from thy lips the marvellous accents fell,
And weird wise meanings o’er the senses stole,
Through those rare cadences, with winsome spell;
Yet even in such refrainings of thy voice
There struggled up a wailing undertone,
That spoke thee victim of the Sisters’ choice,—
Charming all others, dwelling still alone.
They left thee thus disconsolate to roam,
And scorned thy dear, devoted life to spare.
Around the storm-tost vessel sinking there
The wild waves chant thy dirge and welcome home;
Survives alone thy sex’s valiant plea,
And the great heart that loved the brave and free.
Though from thy lips the marvellous accents fell, And weird wise meanings o’er the senses stole, ...///beautiful poem penned on the willing heart and the desire according to worldly infatuation///
Yet even in such refrainings of thy voice There struggled up a wailing undertone, That spoke thee victim of the Sisters’ choice, — Charming all others, dwelling still alone. a very fine poem. tony
the thought process dates from the year 1799, somewhat outdated, but still very amiable poem. Good reading material to think about and search through.
