The Return
By Ezra Pound
S
Movements, and the slow feet,
The trouble in the pace and the uncertain
Wavering!
With fear, as half-awakened;
As if the snow should hesitate
And murmur in the wind,
and half turn back;
These were the “Wing’d-with-Awe,”
inviolable.
With them the silver hounds,
sniffing the trace of air!
These were the swift to harry;
These the keen-scented;
These were the souls of blood.
pallid the leash-men!
