Shall I, like an hermit, dwell
On a rock or in a cell?
Each in his narrow cell forever laid,
The rude forefathers of the hamlet sleep.
The oracles are dumb,
No voice or hideous hum
Runs through the arched roof in words deceiving.
Apollo from his shrine
Can no more divine,
With hollow shriek the steep of Delphos leaving.
No nightly trance or breathed spell
Inspires the pale-eyed priest from the prophetic cell.
