Of Life immense in passion, pulse, and power,
The Modern Man I sing.
AS I PONDER’D IN SILENCE
As I ponder’d in silence,
Returning upon my poems, considering, lingering long,
A Phantom arose before me
Terrible in beauty, age, and power,
And that is the theme of War, the fortune of battles,
The making of perfect soldiers.
