+Quanto amor não bateu, sem resposta, ao seu peito! + +Tinha um olhar azul, envolvente, magnetico, +Cheio de embriaguez, de electricas caricias; +Olhá-lo--era ficar para sempre apoplectico, +Absorvido p'ra sempre em dois mares de delicias. + +Causava uma magia o seu azul olhar, +Parecia do _haschich_ o sonho voluptuoso. +Era feito da renda ethérea do luar... +Que renda transparente a d'esse olhar formoso! + +Deviam ser assim os olhos de Julieta, +Quebrado o doce olhar em morna languidez, +Quando vinha ao balcão falar ao meigo poeta, +Ao classico Romeu do grande poeta inglês. + +E os seus olhos azues, dois sonhos sideraes, +Eram na bella face alabastrina, as puras +Emanações da luz astral dos Ideaes, +Eram dois mares vaporosos de tonturas. + +O sorrir provocava um languido desmaio, +Era o sorriso bom de Glycéra ou de Leda, +Tinha o calor fecundo e são do sol de maio +E a doce suavidade tépida da seda. + +Tinha a regia altivez, um porte de rainha +E a graça virginal d'uma criança pura, +E sentia-se o mimo alado da andorinha +Na graça flexuosa e leve da cintura. + +E que direi então da voz harmoniosa, +D'essa voz penetrante, angelica e maguada?! +Ouvi-la, era sentir uma pét'la de rosa +A roçar o ouvido, em voz cristalizada. + +E tudo era um contraste excentrico, distinto, +Tinha o poder do Inferno e o enlevo dos archanjos, +Olhá-la--era sentir a embriaguez do absintho, +Ouvi-la--era escutar a propria voz dos anjos. + +E em frente da janella o mosteiro vetusto +Vibrava de onde em onde os seus toques divinos. +Então vinha á janella, e o delicado busto +Mergulhava na onda electrica dos sinos. + + + * * * * * + + +Passava a Mocidade altiva para vê-la, +Da terra a fina flôr lhe vinha confessar +O seu ardente amor, debaixo da janella, +Á luz inebriante e meiga do luar. + +A guitarra gemia. As damas hespanholas +Não tinham mais cantar's debaixo do balcão. +Ouvia-se o lamento estranho das violas... +O riso do prazer e o chôro da Paixão. + +Serenatas gentis passavam, quasi a medo, +Com a ternura ideal dos fados portuguêses, +E dizia-se até, em voz baixa, em segredo, +Que ali, mortos d'amor, vinham também marquêses. + +Ouviam-se nascer suspiros maviosos +Das cordas musicaes, ternas, inebriantes, +Brotavam do luar afagos silenciosos, +Dimanavam do céu ondas de diamantes. + +E ante taes expressões e cantos peregrinos, +A linda dama então, sem ouvir nem olhar, +Absorvia-se mais no cantico dos sinos, +E deixava a viola, a cantar e a chorar... + + +--*-- + + +Mas uma vez... A noite era electrica, etherea, + Luminosa, explendente, +Adquirira voz e sonhos a Materia... +O aroma era mais suave... o luar era mais quente... + +Sentiam-se sonhar embriagadoramente +Lirios, como D. Juans, rosas, como as Ofélias, +E até o proprio ar tinha uma voz gemente +Ao beijar, soluçante, as rosas e as camelias. + +Sob a janella um Poeta altivo e orgulhoso +Acertou de passar, cantando meiga trova... +E então Leonor sentiu o fremito do gozo, +A estranha sensação d'uma volupia nova. + +Naquêle ardente olhar tinha ella conhecido +O philtro da Paixão, enervante e sereno... +Quantas de vós, tambem, não tendes já bebido +No vosso negro olhar esse fatal veneno! + +O amor, elle que iguala as raças e as nobrezas +E que possue as forças das paixões damninhas +Que faz curvar os réis ao pé das camponezas +E faz deitar plebeus nos leitos das rainhas; + +O amor, elle que faz dormir as violetas +Junto aos cravos gentis, junto aos lirios suaves, +Transpusera a cantar suas pupilas pretas, +Como ninhos de sonho onde adormecem aves. + + A viola gemia... + E p'la primeira vez +Leonor se pôs a ouvir a languida harmonia, + Em louca embriaguez. + +E ao deitar-se... sentindo a voz eclesiastica +Do sino do convento, o sino feiticeiro, +Julgou ser a viola, inefavel, fantastica, +Que estivesse a vibrar na torre do mosteiro. + + +--*-- + + +Foi uma paixão louca, ardente, doentia, +E o nosso triste poeta, a sorrir e a cantar, +A cantar e a sorrir, todas as noites ia +Envolver Leonor num manto de luar. + +Quantos beijos d'amor, humidos, vagarosos, +Pondo ás vezes no labio um lenço de Bretagne! +Eram beijos sensuaes, vermelhos, capitosos, +Como o estrepido audaz do vinho de Champagne! + +Fundiam-se em abraços, tremulos, nervosos, + Com tepidas caricias, +Mudas contemplações, extasis silenciosos, + Profundos, vagarosos, +Em extranhas sensações de celestiaes delicias. + +Depois aconteceu o que com taes assumptos +Costuma acontecer, de Londres a Stambul; +Os nossos dois amores adormeceram juntos +Sob a cup'la do céu profundamente azul. + +Fugi das noites calmas, mornas luarisadas, +Em que o encanto nos vence e o espasmo em nós actua! +Loucas de muito amor, fugi ás guitarradas, +Escravas da Paixão, tende medo da Lua! + +De manhã, quando o Sol clareava o horizonte +E o rouxinol findava a amena cavatina, +Despediam-se então com um beijo na fronte, +S'tenuados d'amor d'essa noite divina. + +Mas Leonor ficava ainda por instantes, +Espalhados ao vento os seus cabêlos finos, +E mergulhava a alma em sonhos delirantes, +Na doce vibração harmonica dos sinos. + + +--*-- + + +Durou pouco o Amor, porém, assim feliz! +O Amor, o eterno Amor! que inconsistente liga! +Ninguem como ella o quiz! ninguem como elle a quiz! +Separou-os, porém, o cru punhal da Intriga. + +A Intriga é essa mulher que ao cisne que descreve + Um sulco encantador + No lago, branco e leve, +Tenta com mancha escura enodoar-lhe a côr, + E transformada em neve +É a geada que queima a delicada flôr. + +Leonor endoideceu, então, cheia de magua, +Na janella, a sonhar... a cantar... a chorar... +E vinham-lhe ao olhar per'las de sangue e d'agua +Quando ouvia na torre os sinos a tocar. + + E empalidecia a incomparavel face, + Essa ideal belleza, + Como uma ave azul que se afogasse + Em ondas de loucura e de tristeza. + +Dizia então: + «Lá vão nos coches os casados, +Cheios de luz na fronte e resplendente o olhar... +Vejo-os... Vejo-os unir os labios orvalhados, +Como lindos rubis, mimosas per'las + Num unico colar! +Virgem, tu que sofreste a tragica Paixão, + Com os peitos golpeados, + Tirae-me o coração, + Arrancai-m'o aos bocados! +Viste o heroico Jesus, o Propheta incançavel +Nos braços d'uma Cruz, Olimpica Rainha, +E apesar d'essa dôr enorme e incomparavel +Não sei qual foi maior, se a tua dôr, se a minha! +Perdi o noivo! e eu quiz que nunca mais bradasses +Na tua bronzea voz! ó Sino, que irrisão! +P'ra que os Sinos ouvir, a annunciar enlaces, + Se para mim não tocam... + Nem nunca tocarão!» + +Tinha acabado a doida de fallar, +Doida gentil de olhos azues e vagos, +Tendo na fixidez macia do olhar +A immobilidade terna e mistica dos lagos. + +E os sinos do mosteiro, alem, fortes, vibrantes, +Espalhavam no ar notas bruscas, ligeiras, +Claras como cristaes, vivas como diamantes, +E como o desfraldar de sonoras bandeiras. + +Tudo se agita em espanto e a villa inteira corre, +Os homens, as mulheres, os rôtos pequeninos +Ao sentirem cair, cristalina, da torre, +A chuva torrencial do repique dos sinos. + +Leonor ouvia, ouvia, a chorar e a tremer, +Aquêles sons joviaes dos sinos a tocar. +Era a primeira vez que alegres os viu ser, +E era a primeira vez que os ouvia a chorar! + +E emquanto o sino ria esses risos saudaveis +Das creanças gentis, dos anjos pequeninos, +A agua viu cair dos olhos adoraveis +Na alacridade vaga e mistica dos sinos. + + +--*-- + + +De repente, saiu da igreja uma donzella, +Vestida a seda azul, numa expansão inteira, +E Leonor estendia o corpo na janella, +Ao ver-lhe no cabêlo a flôr de laranjeira. + +E era uma mulher que deixava confusas +Todas as atenções, em muda admiração, +Tinha o cabêlo negro e a côr das andaluzas, +Tinha no olhar do Sonho a magica atracção. + +Do seu corpo harmonioso, elastico, flexivel, +Emanava uma essencia etherea, imponderavel, +Como emana, em fragor penetrante, invencivel, +Um perfume subtil d'uma seda impalpavel: + Tinha a ardente magia + --Das sereias gentis da Andaluzia,-- + Que têm gestos sublimes, + E meneios risonhos +Tinha a flexibilidade elastica dos vimes + E a estrutura diáfana dos sonhos. + Nos grandes olhos doces, +Lindos como dois céus, negros como dois crimes, + Relampejantes, humidos, quebrados, + Guadalquivires dormentes, socegados, + Vastos como horisontes, +Tinha da Andaluzia a Alhambra, os eirados, + Os famosos jardins embalsamados, +Onde amavam mulheres e murmuravam fontes. + +. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . + +Depois saiu o noivo, e ó Crueldade ignara, +Irradiára a razão nos olhos de Leonor, +E a grande flôr divina, a flôr mimosa e rara +Reconheceu no noivo o seu primeiro amor. + +Caminhavam os dois, gloriosos, triunfaes, +Rodeados d'uma aureola etherea, luminosa, +Entre os alegres sons dos sinos festivaes, +Numa expansão d'amor profunda e victoriosa. + +Pelo braço um do outro, altivos, orgulhosos, +Iam cheios de gloria e cheios de esplendores, +Inundava-os o sol em beijos luminosos +E as creanças, sorrindo, atiravam-lhes flôres. + +E no tragico assombro, a triste doida então, +A pobre bella e Santa, a timida Leonor, +Sentiu despedaçar-se o terno coração +No convulso derruir titânico da Dôr. + +No olhar lhe fusilou uma colera santa, +Recup'rára a Razão para perder a Vida, +Saiu-lhe uma blasfemia ardente da garganta, +Cambaleou afinal, como se fosse ferida, + Deu tres ou quatro passos, +Estendeu em convulsões galvânicas os braços, + E abrindo, sufocada, a baixa porta, + Sem um ai nem um beijo, + Veiu cair exanime, já morta, + No meio do cortejo. + + +--*-- + + +Ouviram-se então sons plangentes e divinos +De dobres, de sinaes de luto e de viuvez. +Era a toada melancolica dos sinos +Por Leonor a tocar pela primeira vez. + +. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . + + Quantas de vós tambem, lindas creanças, + Que architectaes angelicas esperanças + No vosso coração, + Não ides perfumar as sepulturas, + Co'as frontes virginaes, as fórmas puras, + No pequenino leito d'um caixão! + + Pensai: quantas de vós ouvis os sinos + Em desejos divinos, + Em ilusões celestes, + Para num dia puro, luminoso, + Cingindo as alvas vestes, + Serdes levadas pelos sons dos sinos + Para os canteiros d'um jardim frondoso + De rosas e cyprestes!

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone.

Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + http://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. diff --git a/22723-8.zip b/22723-8.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..d3e890e --- /dev/null +++ b/22723-8.zip diff --git a/LICENSE.txt b/LICENSE.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..6312041 --- /dev/null +++ b/LICENSE.txt @@ -0,0 +1,11 @@ +This eBook, including all associated images, markup, improvements, +metadata, and any other content or labor, has been confirmed to be +in the PUBLIC DOMAIN IN THE UNITED STATES. + +Procedures for determining public domain status are described in +the "Copyright How-To" at https://www.gutenberg.org. + +No investigation has been made concerning possible copyrights in +jurisdictions other than the United States.
