Re: The Vying
is this a lost text of Virgil, or a synopsis of an episode of HBO's Rome? Thanks, Tom! The first three lines and last three lines of The Vying are by me, original to this poem. The words spoken by Horatio in line 4 of The Vying is an excerpt from a sentence in the eleventh paragraph of Chapter Two of Stephen Crane's The Red Badge of Courage From line five to line eighteen, the spoken lines are from sonnets. The first line in this sonnet in The Vying is from the fourteenth line of a sonnet, the second line is from the thirteenth line of a different sonnet, continuing in this manner to the last line of the The Vying sonnet, which is from the first line of a 14th sonnet. Here are the authors used, and their sonnets, in order of appearance: 1. Barnabe Barnes be where thou wilt... from sonnet 46 of Parthenophil and Parthenophe 2. William Wordsworth but, Cynthia!... from With how sad steps, O Moon, thou climb'st the sky 3. Anna Seward sleep, then, my lyre... from sonnet beginning Lyre of the sonnet 4. Joshua Sylvester and look upon you... from sonnet beginning Were I as base as the lowly plain 5. John Milton thy handmaids... from sonnet beginning When Faith and Love, which parted from thee never, often titled On the Religious Memory of Mrs. Catherine Thomson, my Christian Friend, deceased Dec. 16, 1646 6. Edna St. Vincent Millay thus in the wind... from sonnet beginning What lips my lips have kissed, and where, and why 7. Percy Bysshe Shelley on some frail bark... from To Wordsworth 8. Yvor Winters she fled all ways... from Apollo and Daphne 9. Edmund Spenser who first my Muse... from To the right honourable and most vertuous Lady, the Countesse of Penbroke 10. John Barlas fierce night-shade... from Beauty's Anadems 11. Robert Lowell old Cynthia from The Injured Moon, an imitation of Baudelaire's La Lune offensée. 12. William Wordsworth where art thou... from With how sad steps, O Moon, thou climb'st the sky 13. Matthew Arnold that thou canst hear... from Written in Emerson's Essays 14. Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey alas so all things... from sonnet beginning Alas so all thinges nowe doe holde their peace The Vying is similar to an earlier poem of mine titled The Recital.
