The sight in the eyes of men!”

The clean stars came into the sky;

The perfect night was still;

Yet rose to heaven the old blood-cry,

By the blockhouse on the hill.

THE HOUSE OF HATE

Mine enemy builded well, with the soft blue hills in sight;

But betwixt his house and the hills I builded a house for spite:

And the name thereof I set in the stone-work over the gate,

With a carving of bats and apes; and I called it the House of Hate.
