About this book
A collection of enigmatic poems
Chapters (68)
1Black riders came from the sea
2Three little birds in a row
3In the desert
4Yes, I have a thousand tongues
5Once there came a man
6God fashioned the ship of the world carefully
7Mystic shadow, bending near me
8I looked here
9I stood upon a high place
10Should the wide world roll away
11In a lonely place
12And the sins of the fathers shall be visited upon the heads of the children
13If there is a witness to my little life
14There was a crimson clash of war
15Tell brave deeds of war
16Charity, thou art a lie
17There were many who went in huddled procession
18In heaven
19A god in wrath
20A learned man came to me once
21There was, before me
22Once I saw mountains angry
23Places among the stars
24I saw a man pursuing the horizon
25Behold, the grave of a wicked man
26There was set before me a mighty hill
27A youth in apparel that glittered
28"Truth," said a traveller
29Behold, from the land of the farther suns
30Supposing that I should have the courage
31Many workmen
32Two or three angels
33There was one I met upon the road
34I stood upon a highway
35A man saw a ball of gold in the sky
36I met a seer
37On the horizon the peaks assembled
38The ocean said to me once
39The livid lightnings flashed in the clouds
40And you love me
41Love walked alone
42I walked in a desert
43There came whisperings in the winds
44I was in the darkness
45Tradition, thou art for suckling children
46Many red devils ran from my heart
47"Think as I think," said a man
48Once there was a man
49I stood musing in a black world
50You say you are holy
51A man went before a strange god
52Why do you strive for greatness, fool
53Blustering god
54"It was wrong to do this," said the angel
55A man toiled on a burning road
56A man feared that he might find an assassin
57With eye and with gesture
58The sage lectured brilliantly
59Walking in the sky
60Upon the road of my life
61There was a man and a woman
62There was a man who lived a life of fire
63There was a great cathedral
64Friend, your white beard sweeps the ground
65Once, I knew a fine song
66If I should cast off this tattered coat
67God lay dead in heaven
68A spirit sped
