Sinopsis

The Ride of Yeldis & Other Poemsáby Francis Vielé-Griffin (AD 1864-1937) was originally published in 1893 in France (under the title ofáLe chevauchée dʼYeldis et autres poÿmes). This is the first English-language edition of the work, by the pre-eminent French Symbolist poet, whose dreamy style recollects Rimbaud, and also, strangely, Wallace Stevens. Griffin was born in the U.S., but emigrated with his mother to France at the age of seven or eight, not long after the Civil War ended.The poetry speaks for itself:The turrets that covered Her with their shadowRose like organ pipes against the sky,Those evenings in June, with countless voices,And, really, all the musicThat vibrated on the terraces rich in honey,Throughout that slow, sun-drenched June,Was like one long canticle,Of many voices, filled with wonder...* * *In an odor of tossed hay,In a murmur of the rustic ford,Through the diaphanous shade,Come: oblique shadow,The hay smells of love,The waterʼs song is tender, silent, graveLike a distant canticle-áThe year has made its round.
