Far sooner in midsummer tire + The streams than under ice. June could not hire + Her roses to forego the strength they learn + In sleeping on thy breast. No fires can burn + The bridges thou dost lay where men desire + In vain to build. + O Heart, when Love's sun goes + To northward, and the sounds of singing cease, + Keep warm by inner fires, and rest in peace. + Sleep on content, as sleeps the patient rose. + Walk boldly on the white untrodden snows, + The winter is the winter's own release. + + + + + February. + + + + Still lie the sheltering snows, undimmed and white; + And reigns the winter's pregnant silence still; + No sign of spring, save that the catkins fill, + And willow stems grow daily red and bright. + These are the days when ancients held a rite + Of expiation for the old year's ill, + And prayer to purify the new year's will: + Fit days, ere yet the spring rains blur the sight, + Ere yet the bounding blood grows hot with haste, + And dreaming thoughts grow heavy with a greed + The ardent summer's joy to have and taste; + Fit days, to give to last year's losses heed, + To reckon clear the new life's sterner need; + Fit days, for Feast of Expiation placed! + + + + + March + + + + Month which the warring ancients strangely styled + The month of war,--as if in their fierce ways + Were any month of peace!--in thy rough days + I find no war in Nature, though the wild + Winds clash and clang, and broken boughs are piled + At feet of writhing trees. The violets raise + Their heads without affright, without amaze, + And sleep through all the din, as sleeps a child. + And he who watches well may well discern + Sweet expectation in each living thing. + Like pregnant mother the sweet earth doth yearn; + In secret joy makes ready for the spring; + And hidden, sacred, in her breast doth bear + Annunciation lilies for the year. + + + + + April + + + + No days such honored days as these! When yet + Fair Aphrodite reigned, men seeking wide + For some fair thing which should forever bide + On earth, her beauteous memory to set + In fitting frame that no age could forget, + Her name in lovely April's name did hide, + And leave it there, eternally allied + To all the fairest flowers Spring did beget. + And when fair Aphrodite passed from earth, + Her shrines forgotten and her feasts of mirth, + A holier symbol still in seal and sign, + Sweet April took, of kingdom most divine, + When Christ ascended, in the time of birth + Of spring anemones, in Palestine. + + + + + May + + + + O month when they who love must love and wed! + Were one to go to worlds where May is naught, + And seek to tell the memories he had brought + From earth of thee, what were most fitly said? + I know not if the rosy showers shed + From apple-boughs, or if the soft green wrought + In fields, or if the robin's call be fraught + The most with thy delight. Perhaps they read + Thee best who in the ancient time did say + Thou wert the sacred month unto the old: + No blossom blooms upon thy brightest day + So subtly sweet as memories which unfold + In aged hearts which in thy sunshine lie, + To sun themselves once more before they die. + + + + + June + + + + O month whose promise and fulfilment blend, + And burst in one! it seems the earth can store + In all her roomy house no treasure more; + Of all her wealth no farthing have to spend + On fruit, when once this stintless flowering end. + And yet no tiniest flower shall fall before + It hath made ready at its hidden core + Its tithe of seed, which we may count and tend + Till harvest. Joy of blossomed love, for thee + Seems it no fairer thing can yet have birth? + No room is left for deeper ecstasy? + Watch well if seeds grow strong, to scatter free + Germs for thy future summers on the earth. + A joy which is but joy soon comes to dearth. + + + + + July + + + + Some flowers are withered and some joys have died; + The garden reeks with an East Indian scent + From beds where gillyflowers stand weak and spent; + The white heat pales the skies from side to side; + But in still lakes and rivers, cool, content, + Like starry blooms on a new firmament, + White lilies float and regally abide. + In vain the cruel skies their hot rays shed; + The lily does not feel their brazen glare. + In vain the pallid clouds refuse to share + Their dews; the lily feels no thirst, no dread. + Unharmed she lifts her queenly face and head; + She drinks of living waters and keeps fair. + + + + + August + + + + Silence again. The glorious symphony + Hath need of pause and interval of peace. + Some subtle signal bids all sweet sounds cease, + Save hum of insects' aimless industry. + Pathetic summer seeks by blazonry + Of color to conceal her swift decrease. + Weak subterfuge! Each mocking day doth fleece + A blossom, and lay bare her poverty. + Poor middle-agèd summer! Vain this show! + Whole fields of golden-rod cannot offset + One meadow with a single violet; + And well the singing thrush and lily know, + Spite of all artifice which her regret + Can deck in splendid guise, their time to go! + + + + + September + + + + O golden month! How high thy gold is heaped! + The yellow birch-leaves shine like bright coins strung + On wands; the chestnut's yellow pennons tongue + To every wind its harvest challenge. Steeped + In yellow, still lie fields where wheat was reaped; + And yellow still the corn sheaves, stacked among + The yellow gourds, which from the earth have wrung + Her utmost gold. To highest boughs have leaped + The purple grape,--last thing to ripen, late + By very reason of its precious cost. + O Heart, remember, vintages are lost + If grapes do not for freezing night-dews wait. + Think, while thou sunnest thyself in Joy's estate, + Mayhap thou canst not ripen without frost! + + + + + October + + + + The month of carnival of all the year, + When Nature lets the wild earth go its way + And spend whole seasons on a single day. + The spring-time holds her white and purple dear; + October, lavish, flaunts them far and near; + The summer charily her reds doth lay + Like jewels on her costliest array; + October, scornful, burns them on a bier. + The winter hoards his pearls of frost in sign + Of kingdom: whiter pearls than winter knew, + Or Empress wore, in Egypt's ancient line, + October, feasting 'neath her dome of blue, + Drinks at a single draught, slow filtered through + Sunshiny air, as in a tingling wine! + + + + + November + + + + This is the treacherous month when autumn days + With summer's voice come bearing summer's gifts. + Beguiled, the pale down-trodden aster lifts + Her head and blooms again. The soft, warm haze + Makes moist once more the sere and dusty ways, + And, creeping through where dead leaves lie in drifts, + The violet returns. Snow noiseless sifts + Ere night, an icy shroud, which morning's rays + Will idly shine upon and slowly melt, + Too late to bid the violet live again. + The treachery, at last, too late, is plain; + Bare are the places where the sweet flowers dwelt. + What joy sufficient hath November felt? + What profit from the violet's day of pain? + + + + + December + + + + The lakes of ice gleam bluer than the lakes + Of water 'neath the summer sunshine gleamed: + Far fairer than when placidly it streamed, + The brook its frozen architecture makes, + And under bridges white its swift way takes. + Snow comes and goes as messenger who dreamed + Might linger on the road; or one who deemed + His message hostile gently for their sakes + Who listened might reveal it by degrees. + We gird against the cold of winter wind + Our loins now with mighty bands of sleep, + In longest, darkest nights take rest and ease, + And every shortening day, as shadows creep + O'er the brief noontide, fresh surprises find. + + + + + + + + + + +End of Project Gutenberg's A Calendar of Sonnets, by Helen Hunt Jackson + +*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK A CALENDAR OF SONNETS *** + +***** This file should be named 9825-8.txt or 9825-8.zip ***** +This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: + https://www.gutenberg.org/9/8/2/9825/ + +Produced by Distributed Proofreaders + +Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions +will be renamed. + +Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no +one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation +(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without +permission and without paying copyright royalties.

For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. 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: + + https://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/9825-8.zip b/9825-8.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..39f7020 --- /dev/null +++ b/9825-8.zip diff --git a/9825-h.zip b/9825-h.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..5224ee5 --- /dev/null +++ b/9825-h.zip diff --git a/9825-h/9825-h.htm b/9825-h/9825-h.htm new file mode 100644 index 0000000..3bcd57f --- /dev/null +++ b/9825-h/9825-h.htm @@ -0,0 +1,757 @@ +<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> +<!DOCTYPE html + PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" + "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> + +<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> + +<head> +<title>A Calendar of Sonnets - by Helen Jackson</title> + +<style type="text/css"> + <!-- + h1,h2,h3,h4 { text-align: center; font-weight: bold; font-variant: small-caps } + h1,h2 { margin-top: 2em } + .smallcaps { font-variant: small-caps } + img { border-style: none } + p {margin: 3em 20% 3em 20%} + hr ( margin: 2em 0% 2em 0% } + --> +</style> +</head> +<body> + + +<pre> + +The Project Gutenberg EBook of A Calendar of Sonnets, by Helen Hunt Jackson + +This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with +almost no restrictions whatsoever.

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 https://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 https://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 including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. 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: + + https://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. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> diff --git a/9825-h/images/head-apr.png b/9825-h/images/head-apr.png Binary files differnew file mode

Far sooner in midsummer tire + The streams than under ice. June could not hire + Her roses to forego the strength they learn + In sleeping on thy breast. No fires can burn + The bridges thou dost lay where men desire + In vain to build. + O Heart, when Love's sun goes + To northward, and the sounds of singing cease, + Keep warm by inner fires, and rest in peace. + Sleep on content, as sleeps the patient rose. + Walk boldly on the white untrodden snows, + The winter is the winter's own release. + + + + + February. + + + + Still lie the sheltering snows, undimmed and white; + And reigns the winter's pregnant silence still; + No sign of spring, save that the catkins fill, + And willow stems grow daily red and bright. + These are the days when ancients held a rite + Of expiation for the old year's ill, + And prayer to purify the new year's will: + Fit days, ere yet the spring rains blur the sight, + Ere yet the bounding blood grows hot with haste, + And dreaming thoughts grow heavy with a greed + The ardent summer's joy to have and taste; + Fit days, to give to last year's losses heed, + To reckon clear the new life's sterner need; + Fit days, for Feast of Expiation placed! + + + + + March + + + + Month which the warring ancients strangely styled + The month of war,--as if in their fierce ways + Were any month of peace!--in thy rough days + I find no war in Nature, though the wild + Winds clash and clang, and broken boughs are piled + At feet of writhing trees. The violets raise + Their heads without affright, without amaze, + And sleep through all the din, as sleeps a child. + And he who watches well may well discern + Sweet expectation in each living thing. + Like pregnant mother the sweet earth doth yearn; + In secret joy makes ready for the spring; + And hidden, sacred, in her breast doth bear + Annunciation lilies for the year. + + + + + April + + + + No days such honored days as these! When yet + Fair Aphrodite reigned, men seeking wide + For some fair thing which should forever bide + On earth, her beauteous memory to set + In fitting frame that no age could forget, + Her name in lovely April's name did hide, + And leave it there, eternally allied + To all the fairest flowers Spring did beget. + And when fair Aphrodite passed from earth, + Her shrines forgotten and her feasts of mirth, + A holier symbol still in seal and sign, + Sweet April took, of kingdom most divine, + When Christ ascended, in the time of birth + Of spring anemones, in Palestine. + + + + + May + + + + O month when they who love must love and wed! + Were one to go to worlds where May is naught, + And seek to tell the memories he had brought + From earth of thee, what were most fitly said? + I know not if the rosy showers shed + From apple-boughs, or if the soft green wrought + In fields, or if the robin's call be fraught + The most with thy delight. Perhaps they read + Thee best who in the ancient time did say + Thou wert the sacred month unto the old: + No blossom blooms upon thy brightest day + So subtly sweet as memories which unfold + In aged hearts which in thy sunshine lie, + To sun themselves once more before they die. + + + + + June + + + + O month whose promise and fulfilment blend, + And burst in one! it seems the earth can store + In all her roomy house no treasure more; + Of all her wealth no farthing have to spend + On fruit, when once this stintless flowering end. + And yet no tiniest flower shall fall before + It hath made ready at its hidden core + Its tithe of seed, which we may count and tend + Till harvest. Joy of blossomed love, for thee + Seems it no fairer thing can yet have birth? + No room is left for deeper ecstasy? + Watch well if seeds grow strong, to scatter free + Germs for thy future summers on the earth. + A joy which is but joy soon comes to dearth. + + + + + July + + + + Some flowers are withered and some joys have died; + The garden reeks with an East Indian scent + From beds where gillyflowers stand weak and spent; + The white heat pales the skies from side to side; + But in still lakes and rivers, cool, content, + Like starry blooms on a new firmament, + White lilies float and regally abide. + In vain the cruel skies their hot rays shed; + The lily does not feel their brazen glare. + In vain the pallid clouds refuse to share + Their dews; the lily feels no thirst, no dread. + Unharmed she lifts her queenly face and head; + She drinks of living waters and keeps fair. + + + + + August + + + + Silence again. The glorious symphony + Hath need of pause and interval of peace. + Some subtle signal bids all sweet sounds cease, + Save hum of insects' aimless industry. + Pathetic summer seeks by blazonry + Of color to conceal her swift decrease. + Weak subterfuge! Each mocking day doth fleece + A blossom, and lay bare her poverty. + Poor middle-aged summer! Vain this show! + Whole fields of golden-rod cannot offset + One meadow with a single violet; + And well the singing thrush and lily know, + Spite of all artifice which her regret + Can deck in splendid guise, their time to go! + + + + + September + + + + O golden month! How high thy gold is heaped! + The yellow birch-leaves shine like bright coins strung + On wands; the chestnut's yellow pennons tongue + To every wind its harvest challenge. Steeped + In yellow, still lie fields where wheat was reaped; + And yellow still the corn sheaves, stacked among + The yellow gourds, which from the earth have wrung + Her utmost gold. To highest boughs have leaped + The purple grape,--last thing to ripen, late + By very reason of its precious cost. + O Heart, remember, vintages are lost + If grapes do not for freezing night-dews wait. + Think, while thou sunnest thyself in Joy's estate, + Mayhap thou canst not ripen without frost! + + + + + October + + + + The month of carnival of all the year, + When Nature lets the wild earth go its way + And spend whole seasons on a single day. + The spring-time holds her white and purple dear; + October, lavish, flaunts them far and near; + The summer charily her reds doth lay + Like jewels on her costliest array; + October, scornful, burns them on a bier. + The winter hoards his pearls of frost in sign + Of kingdom: whiter pearls than winter knew, + Or Empress wore, in Egypt's ancient line, + October, feasting 'neath her dome of blue, + Drinks at a single draught, slow filtered through + Sunshiny air, as in a tingling wine! + + + + + November + + + + This is the treacherous month when autumn days + With summer's voice come bearing summer's gifts. + Beguiled, the pale down-trodden aster lifts + Her head and blooms again. The soft, warm haze + Makes moist once more the sere and dusty ways, + And, creeping through where dead leaves lie in drifts, + The violet returns. Snow noiseless sifts + Ere night, an icy shroud, which morning's rays + Will idly shine upon and slowly melt, + Too late to bid the violet live again. + The treachery, at last, too late, is plain; + Bare are the places where the sweet flowers dwelt. + What joy sufficient hath November felt? + What profit from the violet's day of pain? + + + + + December + + + + The lakes of ice gleam bluer than the lakes + Of water 'neath the summer sunshine gleamed: + Far fairer than when placidly it streamed, + The brook its frozen architecture makes, + And under bridges white its swift way takes. + Snow comes and goes as messenger who dreamed + Might linger on the road; or one who deemed + His message hostile gently for their sakes + Who listened might reveal it by degrees. + We gird against the cold of winter wind + Our loins now with mighty bands of sleep, + In longest, darkest nights take rest and ease, + And every shortening day, as shadows creep + O'er the brief noontide, fresh surprises find. + + + + + + + + + + +End of Project Gutenberg's A Calendar of Sonnets, by Helen Hunt Jackson + +*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK A CALENDAR OF SONNETS *** + +***** This file should be named 9825.txt or 9825.zip ***** +This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: + https://www.gutenberg.org/9/8/2/9825/ + +Produced by Distributed Proofreaders + +Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions +will be renamed. + +Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no +one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation +(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without +permission and without paying copyright royalties.

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 https://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.

Far sooner in midsummer tire +The streams than under ice. June could not hire +Her roses to forego the strength they learn +In sleeping on thy breast. No fires can burn +The bridges thou dost lay where men desire +In vain to build. + O Heart, when Love's sun goes +To northward, and the sounds of singing cease, +Keep warm by inner fires, and rest in peace. +Sleep on content, as sleeps the patient rose. +Walk boldly on the white untrodden snows, +The winter is the winter's own release. + + + + +February. + + + +Still lie the sheltering snows, undimmed and white; +And reigns the winter's pregnant silence still; +No sign of spring, save that the catkins fill, +And willow stems grow daily red and bright. +These are the days when ancients held a rite +Of expiation for the old year's ill, +And prayer to purify the new year's will: +Fit days, ere yet the spring rains blur the sight, +Ere yet the bounding blood grows hot with haste, +And dreaming thoughts grow heavy with a greed +The ardent summer's joy to have and taste; +Fit days, to give to last year's losses heed, +To reckon clear the new life's sterner need; +Fit days, for Feast of Expiation placed! + + + + +March + + + +Month which the warring ancients strangely styled +The month of war,--as if in their fierce ways +Were any month of peace!--in thy rough days +I find no war in Nature, though the wild +Winds clash and clang, and broken boughs are piled +At feet of writhing trees. The violets raise +Their heads without affright, without amaze, +And sleep through all the din, as sleeps a child. +And he who watches well may well discern +Sweet expectation in each living thing. +Like pregnant mother the sweet earth doth yearn; +In secret joy makes ready for the spring; +And hidden, sacred, in her breast doth bear +Annunciation lilies for the year. + + + + +April + + + +No days such honored days as these! When yet +Fair Aphrodite reigned, men seeking wide +For some fair thing which should forever bide +On earth, her beauteous memory to set +In fitting frame that no age could forget, +Her name in lovely April's name did hide, +And leave it there, eternally allied +To all the fairest flowers Spring did beget. +And when fair Aphrodite passed from earth, +Her shrines forgotten and her feasts of mirth, +A holier symbol still in seal and sign, +Sweet April took, of kingdom most divine, +When Christ ascended, in the time of birth +Of spring anemones, in Palestine. + + + + +May + + + +O month when they who love must love and wed! +Were one to go to worlds where May is naught, +And seek to tell the memories he had brought +From earth of thee, what were most fitly said? +I know not if the rosy showers shed +From apple-boughs, or if the soft green wrought +In fields, or if the robin's call be fraught +The most with thy delight. Perhaps they read +Thee best who in the ancient time did say +Thou wert the sacred month unto the old: +No blossom blooms upon thy brightest day +So subtly sweet as memories which unfold +In aged hearts which in thy sunshine lie, +To sun themselves once more before they die. + + + + +June + + + +O month whose promise and fulfilment blend, +And burst in one! it seems the earth can store +In all her roomy house no treasure more; +Of all her wealth no farthing have to spend +On fruit, when once this stintless flowering end. +And yet no tiniest flower shall fall before +It hath made ready at its hidden core +Its tithe of seed, which we may count and tend +Till harvest. Joy of blossomed love, for thee +Seems it no fairer thing can yet have birth? +No room is left for deeper ecstasy? +Watch well if seeds grow strong, to scatter free +Germs for thy future summers on the earth. +A joy which is but joy soon comes to dearth. + + + + +July + + + +Some flowers are withered and some joys have died; +The garden reeks with an East Indian scent +From beds where gillyflowers stand weak and spent; +The white heat pales the skies from side to side; +But in still lakes and rivers, cool, content, +Like starry blooms on a new firmament, +White lilies float and regally abide. +In vain the cruel skies their hot rays shed; +The lily does not feel their brazen glare. +In vain the pallid clouds refuse to share +Their dews; the lily feels no thirst, no dread. +Unharmed she lifts her queenly face and head; +She drinks of living waters and keeps fair. + + + + +August + + + +Silence again. The glorious symphony +Hath need of pause and interval of peace. +Some subtle signal bids all sweet sounds cease, +Save hum of insects' aimless industry. +Pathetic summer seeks by blazonry +Of color to conceal her swift decrease. +Weak subterfuge! Each mocking day doth fleece +A blossom, and lay bare her poverty. +Poor middle-agèd summer! Vain this show! +Whole fields of golden-rod cannot offset +One meadow with a single violet; +And well the singing thrush and lily know, +Spite of all artifice which her regret +Can deck in splendid guise, their time to go! + + + + +September + + + +O golden month! How high thy gold is heaped! +The yellow birch-leaves shine like bright coins strung +On wands; the chestnut's yellow pennons tongue +To every wind its harvest challenge. Steeped +In yellow, still lie fields where wheat was reaped; +And yellow still the corn sheaves, stacked among +The yellow gourds, which from the earth have wrung +Her utmost gold. To highest boughs have leaped +The purple grape,--last thing to ripen, late +By very reason of its precious cost. +O Heart, remember, vintages are lost +If grapes do not for freezing night-dews wait. +Think, while thou sunnest thyself in Joy's estate, +Mayhap thou canst not ripen without frost! + + + + +October + + + +The month of carnival of all the year, +When Nature lets the wild earth go its way +And spend whole seasons on a single day. +The spring-time holds her white and purple dear; +October, lavish, flaunts them far and near; +The summer charily her reds doth lay +Like jewels on her costliest array; +October, scornful, burns them on a bier. +The winter hoards his pearls of frost in sign +Of kingdom: whiter pearls than winter knew, +Or Empress wore, in Egypt's ancient line, +October, feasting 'neath her dome of blue, +Drinks at a single draught, slow filtered through +Sunshiny air, as in a tingling wine! + + + + +November + + + +This is the treacherous month when autumn days +With summer's voice come bearing summer's gifts. +Beguiled, the pale down-trodden aster lifts +Her head and blooms again. The soft, warm haze +Makes moist once more the sere and dusty ways, +And, creeping through where dead leaves lie in drifts, +The violet returns. Snow noiseless sifts +Ere night, an icy shroud, which morning's rays +Will idly shine upon and slowly melt, +Too late to bid the violet live again. +The treachery, at last, too late, is plain; +Bare are the places where the sweet flowers dwelt. +What joy sufficient hath November felt? +What profit from the violet's day of pain? + + + + +December + + + +The lakes of ice gleam bluer than the lakes +Of water 'neath the summer sunshine gleamed: +Far fairer than when placidly it streamed, +The brook its frozen architecture makes, +And under bridges white its swift way takes. +Snow comes and goes as messenger who dreamed +Might linger on the road; or one who deemed +His message hostile gently for their sakes +Who listened might reveal it by degrees. +We gird against the cold of winter wind +Our loins now with mighty bands of sleep, +In longest, darkest nights take rest and ease, +And every shortening day, as shadows creep +O'er the brief noontide, fresh surprises find. + + + + + +End of Project Gutenberg's A Calendar of Sonnets, by Helen Hunt Jackson + +*** END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK A CALENDAR OF SONNETS *** + +This file should be named calsn10.txt or calsn10.zip +Corrected EDITIONS of our eBooks get a new NUMBER, calsn11.txt +VERSIONS based on separate sources get new LETTER, calsn10a.txt + +Produced by Distributed Proofreaders + +Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US +unless a copyright notice is included.
