Does the Eagle know what is in the pit?

Or wilt thou go ask the Mole:

Can Wisdom be put in a silver rod?

Or Love in a golden bowl?

Ezra Pound·1885–1972
rimson the hearth where one last ember glows!My heart's new winter hath no such relief,Nor thought of Spring whose blossom he hath knownHath turned him back where Spring is banished.Barren the heart and dead the fires there,Blow! O ye ashes, where the winds shall please,But cry, "Love also is the Yearly Slain."
