Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Potiphar's Wife and Other Poems
White, in the blue Egyptian sky, it soared With mighty graven stones reared outwardly This Side the gate-enthroned - sate Horus, Lord, Finger to lip; and, on that other, Thmei, Mother of Truth, holding her asp and wand, Glared with great granite face across the land.
Inwardly, by an alley of black Shade, The footstep passed on checkered Slabs set Square, Into a walled court; where a colonnade Framed a glad garden full of odors rare From heavy blooms and fruits. Without was seen Golden Noon ?aming, here 'twas Evening green!
