The Vying

Virginia told Appius shall in the step of secret silence go
Virginia told Minutius unseen, abroad the bruit of her is blown
Numitorius told Calphurnia good as clothed by the grasses of Eden
Horatio told Appius their uniforms glowed a deep purple hue
Appius told Minutius be where thou wilt, thou wilt not harbour here
Minutius told Calphurnia but, Cynthia! should to thee the palm be given
Calphurnia told Corbulo sleep, then, my Lyre, thy tuneful tasks are o'er
Corbulo told Horatio and look upon you with ten thousand eyes
Horatio told Icilius thy handmaids, clad them o'er with purple beams
Icilius told Numitorius thus in the winter stands the lonely tree
Numitorius told Virginia on some frail bark in winter's midnight roar
Icilius told Virginia she fled all ways into the grasses' mesh
Horatio told Virginia who first my Muse did lift out of the flore
Corbulo told Virginia fierce night-shade berries purple on their stems
Calphurnia told Virginia old Cynthia, the lamp of our retreats
Minutius told Virginia where art thou? thou so often seen on high
Appius told Virginia that thou canst hear, and hearing, hold thy way
Virginia told Appius alas so all things now do hold their peace
Virginia told Corbulo Argos (thour't, Jove, named) needs but Polyphème
Minutius told Icilius or mute as the Memnon stone 'neath the moon
Appius told Minutius as a garden overgrown and hidden

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. More
