Excerpt from Heartsease and Rue
The electric nerve, whose instantaneous thrill Makes next-door gossips of the antipodes, Confutes poor Hope's last fallacy Of ease, The distance that divided her from ill Earth sentient seems again as when Of Old The horny foot of Pan Stamped, and the conscious horror ran Beneath men's feet through all her fibres cold Space's blue walls are mined; we feel the throe From underground of our night-mantled foe The flame-winged feet Of Trade's new Mercury, that dry-shod run Through briny abysses dreamless of the sun, Are mercilessly fleet, And at a bound annihilate Ocean's prerogative of Short reprieve Surely ill news might wait.
