Gentildonna

She passed and left no quiver in the veins, who now
Moving among the trees, and clinging
in the air she severed,
Fanning the grass she walked on then, endures:
Grey olive leaves beneath a rain-cold sky.

Geniality

How does the genius make itself known? In the way that in nature
Shows the Creator himself,--e'en in the infinite whole.
Clear is the ether, and yet of depth that ne'er can be fathomed;
Seen by the eye, it remains evermore closed to the sense.

Genial Impulse

Thus roll I, never taking ease,
My tub, like Saint Diogenes,
Now serious am, now seek to please;
Now love and hate in turn one sees;
The motives now are those, now these;
Now nothings, now realities.
Thus roll I, never taking ease,
My tub, like Saint Diogenes.

Genesis BK IX

ll. 438-441) I will let him sit next me, whoever shall return to
hell proclaiming that they have set at naught, by word and deed,
the counsels of the King of heaven and been displeasing to the
Lord."

गौरी के वर देखि बड़ दुःख भेल, सखी बड़ दुःख भेल...

मन के मनोरथ मने रहि गेल, लैलो भिखारी पर सेहो बकलेल !
भोला के कतहुं जगत नाहीं साँक लेल, बरके जे देखि गायनि धुरि गेल!!

हमर गौरी नहिं छथि बकलेल, तिनका एहन बर कोना आनि गेल !
भनहिं विद्यापति बड़ दिन भेल, गौरी मंगन शिव आनन्द भेल !!

Gabriel's Grub Song

Brave lodgings for one, brave lodgings for one,
A few feet of cold earth, when life is done;
A stone at the head, a stone at the feet;
A rich, juicy meal for the worms to eat;
Rank grass overhead, and damp clay around,
Brave lodging for one, these, in holy ground!
