"The Poet's Corner..."

"What Counsel Has the Hooded Moon" 

by James Joyce "

What counsel has the hooded moon 

Put in thy heart, my shyly sweet, 

Of Love in ancient plenilune, 

Glory and stars beneath his feet -- - 

A sage that is but kith and kin 

With the comedian Capuchin? 

Believe me rather that am wise 

In disregard of the divine, 

A glory kindles in those eyes 

Trembles to starlight. Mine, O Mine! 

No more be tears in moon or mist 

For thee, sweet sentimentalist. 

For Stephen Christopher Harris, if he wants it...
