Description

It is is biographical book. It was the hour, when of diurnal heat No reliques chafe the cold beams of the moon, O'er powered by earth, or planetary sway Of Saturn; and the geomancer sees His Greater Fortune up the east ascend, Where gray dawn checkers first the shadowy cone; When 'fore me in my dream a woman's shape There came, with lips that stammered, eyes aslant, Distorted feet, hands maimed, and colour pale.
