ETERNITY, by ARTHUR RIMBAUD Poem Explanation Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: I have recovered it / what? Eternity Last Line: Matched with the sun. | |||
I have recovered it. What? Eternity. It is the sea Matched with the sun. My sentinel soul, Let us murmur the vow Of the night so void And of the fiery day. Of human sanctions, Of common transports, You free yourself: You soar according . . . From your ardor alone, Embers of satin, Duty exhales, Without any one saying: at last. Never a hope; No genesis. Skill with patience . . . Anguish is certain. I have recovered it. What? Eternity. It is the sea Matched with the sun. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A SEASON IN HELL: ILL WILL; MAUVAIS SANG by ARTHUR RIMBAUD A SEASON IN HELL: MORNING by ARTHUR RIMBAUD A SEASON IN HELL: THE ALCHEMY OF WORDS by ARTHUR RIMBAUD |
