Excerpt from Created Gold and Other Poems
T dawn there came a roar, and palace proud Across the city to the minster bowed. The soldiers roused and ran, ran priest and clown, The stout old house beside the church was down, The massy walls were gapped, the roof was gone, The halted mob cry. As the priests press on, Devil and sorcerer The ill words grow; For all the people in the city know The foreign scholar, thin, and lank, and spent, Though seldom up and down the streets he went And when he came, the women raised a jeer, And pointed at him. When they saw him peer From the barred windows, children shrank away. Now buried 'neath the ruined house he lay.
