i
the trumpet-vine arbour
the throats of the little red trumpet-flowers are
wide open,
and the clangour of 1 beats against the hot sunlight.
they 2 and blare at the burning sky.
red!  red!  coarse notes of red,
trumpeted at the blue sky.
in long 3 of sound, molten metal,
the vine declares itself.
clang! -- from its red and yellow 4.
clang! -- from its long, nasal trumpets,
splitting the sunlight into ribbons, 5 and shot with noise.
i sit in the cool arbour, in a green-and-gold 6.
it is very still, for i cannot hear the trumpets,
i only know that they are red and open,
and that the sun above the arbour shakes with heat.
my 7 is newly mended,
and makes fine-drawn lines with its point.
down the long, white paper it makes little lines,
just lines -- up -- down -- criss-cross.
my heart is strained out at the pin-point of my quill;
it is thin and 8 like the marks of the pen.
my hand marches to a squeaky tune,
it marches down the paper to a 9 of fifes.
my pen and the trumpet-flowers,
and washington's armies away over the smoke-tree to the southwest.
"yankee doodle," my darling!  it is you against the british,
marching in your 10 shoes to 11 down king george.
what have you got in your hat?  not a feather, i 12.
just a hay-straw, for it is the harvest you are fighting for.
hay in your hat, and the whites of their eyes for a target!
like bunker hill, two years ago, when i watched all day from the
house-top
through father's spy-glass.
the red city, and the blue, bright water,
and 13 of smoke which you made.
twenty miles away,
round by cambridge, or over the neck,
but the smoke was white -- white!
to-day the trumpet-flowers are red -- red --
and i cannot see you fighting,
but old mr. dimond has fled to canada,
and myra sings "yankee doodle" at her milking.
the red throats of the trumpets bray and clang in the sunshine,
and the smoke-tree puffs dun blossoms into the blue air.

ii
the city of falling leaves
leaves fall,
brown leaves,
yellow leaves 14 with brown.
they fall,
flutter,
fall again.
the brown leaves,
and the streaked yellow leaves,
loosen on their branches
and drift slowly 15.
one,
one, two, three,
one, two, five.
all venice is a falling of autumn leaves --
brown,
and yellow streaked with brown.
"that 16, 17,
beautiful,
i am quite 18 by it.
your phrases turn about my heart
and 19 me to swooning.
open the window, i beg.
lord!  what a strumming of 20 and mandolins!
'tis really a shame to stop indoors.
call my maid, or i will make you lace me yourself.
fie, how hot it is, not a breath of air!
see how straight the leaves are falling.
marianna, i will have the yellow satin caught up with silver fringe,
it peeps out 21 from under a 22.
am i well painted to-day, `caro abate mio'?
you will be proud of me at the `ridotto', hey?
proud of being `cavalier servente' to such a lady?"
"can you doubt it, `bellissima contessa'?
a pinch more 23 on the right cheek,
and venus herself shines less . . ."
"you bore me, abate,
i 24 i must change you!
a letter, achmet?
run and look out of the window, abate.
i will read my letter in peace."
the little black slave with the yellow satin turban
gazes at his mistress with strained eyes.
his yellow turban and black skin
are gorgeous -- barbaric.
the yellow satin dress with its silver flashings
lies on a chair
beside a black mantle and a black mask.
yellow and black,
gorgeous -- barbaric.
the lady reads her letter,
and the leaves drift slowly
past the long windows.
"how silly you look, my dear abate,
with that great brown leaf in your 25.
pluck it off, i beg you,
or i shall die of laughing."
a yellow wall
aflare in the sunlight,
chequered with shadows,
shadows of vine leaves,
shadows of masks.
masks coming, printing themselves for an instant,
then passing on,
more masks always replacing them.
masks with tricorns and rapiers sticking out behind
pursuing masks with 26 and high heels,
the sunlight shining under their insteps.
one,
one, two,
one, two, three,
there is a 27 of shadows on the hot wall,
filigreed at the top with moving leaves.
yellow sunlight and black shadows,
yellow and black,
gorgeous -- barbaric.
two masks stand together,
and the shadow of a leaf falls through them,
marking the wall where they are not.
from hat-tip to shoulder-tip,
from elbow to sword-hilt,
the leaf falls.
the shadows mingle,
blur together,
slide along the wall and disappear.
gold of 28 and candles,
and night blackness 29 in the ceiling beams.
saint mark's glitters with flames and reflections.
a cloak brushes aside,
and the yellow of satin
licks out over the coloured inlays of the pavement.
under the gold crucifixes
there is a meeting of hands
reaching from black 30.
sighing embraces, bold investigations,
hide in confessionals,
sheltered by the 31 of feet.
gorgeous -- barbaric
in its mail of jewels and gold,
saint mark's looks down at the 32 of black masks;
and outside in the palace gardens brown leaves fall,
flutter,
fall.
brown,
and yellow streaked with brown.
blue-black, the sky over venice,
with a 33 of yellow stars.
there is no moon,
and the waves push darkly against the prow
of the 34,
coming from malamocco
and streaming toward venice.
it is black under the gondola hood,
but the yellow of a satin dress
glares out like the eye of a watching tiger.
yellow compassed about with darkness,
yellow and black,
gorgeous -- barbaric.
the boatman sings,
it is tasso that he sings;
the lovers seek each other beneath their mantles,
and the gondola drifts over the 35, 36 to the coming dawn.
but at malamocco in front,
in venice behind,
fall the leaves,
brown,
and yellow streaked with brown.
they fall,
flutter,
fall.
