Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Child of the Amazons: And Other Poems
Than they go thro' the verdurous colonnades And living aisles of their uncovered temple. For where the trees unveil unto the dawn A summit old, a windy sanctuary, There doth the royal warrior summon them. There by her savage altar doth she stand, Immense with beauty, like a sexless god, Imperial oaks lifting their arms behind her, And the East nourishing her limbs with light. She, as they come, doth lift her voice to them In high and ardent music.
