"Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came"

Robert Browning
+
+
+
+
+
+
I.
+
+
+
+
+
My first thought was, he lied in every word, +
+
That hoary cripple, with malicious eye
+
Askance to watch the working of his lie
+
+
+
On mine, and mouth scarce able to afford
+
Suppression of the glee that pursed and scored +
+
Its edge, at one more victim gained thereby.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
II.
+
+
+
+
+
What else should he be set for, with his staff? +
+
What, save to waylay with his lies, ensnare
+
All travellers who might find him posted there,
+
+
+
And ask the road? I guessed what skull-like laugh
+
Would break, what crutch 'gin write my epitaph +
+
For pastime in the dusty thoroughfare,
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
III.
+
+
+
+
+
If at his counsel I should turn aside +
+
Into that ominous tract which, all agree,
+
Hides the Dark Tower. Yet acquiescingly
+
+
+
I did turn as he pointed: neither pride
+
Nor hope rekindling at the end descried, +
+
So much as gladness that some end might be.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
IV.
+
+
+
+
+
For, what with my whole world-wide wandering, +
+
What with my search drawn out thro' years, my hope
+
Dwindled into a ghost not fit to cope
+
+
+
With that obstreperous joy success would bring,
+
I hardly tried now to rebuke the spring +
+
My heart made, finding failure in its scope.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
V.
+
+
+
+
+
As when a sick man very near to death +
+
Seems dead indeed, and feels begin and end
+
The tears and takes the farewell of each friend,
+
+
+
And hears one bid the other go, draw breath
+
Freelier outside ("since all is o'er," he saith, +
+
"And the blow fallen no grieving can amend;")
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
VI.
+
+
+
+
+
While some discuss if near the other graves +
+
Be room enough for this, and when a day
+
Suits best for carrying the corpse away,
+
+
+
With care about the banners, scarves and staves:
+
And still the man hears all, and only craves +
+
He may not shame such tender love and stay.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
VII.
+
+
+
+
+
Thus, I had so long suffered in this quest, +
+
Heard failure prophesied so oft, been writ
+
So many times among "The Band" - to wit,
+
+
+
The knights who to the Dark Tower's search addressed
+
Their steps - that just to fail as they, seemed best, +
+
And all the doubt was now—should I be fit?
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
VIII.
+
+
+
+
+
So, quiet as despair, I turned from him, +
+
That hateful cripple, out of his highway
+
Into the path he pointed. All the day
+
+
+
Had been a dreary one at best, and dim
+
Was settling to its close, yet shot one grim +
+
Red leer to see the plain catch its estray.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
IX.
+
+
+
+
+
For mark! no sooner was I fairly found +
+
Pledged to the plain, after a pace or two,
+
Than, pausing to throw backward a last view
+
+
+
O'er the safe road, 'twas gone; grey plain all round:
+
Nothing but plain to the horizon's bound. +
+
I might go on; nought else remained to do.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
X.
+
+
+
+
+
So, on I went. I think I never saw +
+
Such starved ignoble nature; nothing throve:
+
For flowers - as well expect a cedar grove!
+
+
+
But cockle, spurge, according to their law
+
Might propagate their kind, with none to awe, +
+
You'd think; a burr had been a treasure trove.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XI.
+
+
+
+
+
No! penury, inertness and grimace, +
+
In some strange sort, were the land's portion. "See
+
Or shut your eyes," said Nature peevishly,
+
+
+
"It nothing skills: I cannot help my case:
+
'Tis the Last Judgment's fire must cure this place, +
+
Calcine its clods and set my prisoners free."
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XII.
+
+
+
+
+
If there pushed any ragged thistle-stalk +
+
Above its mates, the head was chopped; the bents
+
Were jealous else. What made those holes and rents
+
+
+
In the dock's harsh swarth leaves, bruised as to baulk
+
All hope of greenness? 'tis a brute must walk +
+
Pashing their life out, with a brute's intents.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XIII.
+
+
+
+
+
As for the grass, it grew as scant as hair +
+
In leprosy; thin dry blades pricked the mud
+
Which underneath looked kneaded up with blood.
+
+
+
One stiff blind horse, his every bone a-stare,
+
Stood stupefied, however he came there: +
+
Thrust out past service from the devil's stud!
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XIV.
+
+
+
+
+
Alive? he might be dead for aught I know, +
+
With that red gaunt and colloped neck a-strain,
+
And shut eyes underneath the rusty mane;
+
+
+
Seldom went such grotesqueness with such woe;
+
I never saw a brute I hated so; +
+
He must be wicked to deserve such pain.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XV.
+
+
+
+
+
I shut my eyes and turned them on my heart. +
+
As a man calls for wine before he fights,
+
I asked one draught of earlier, happier sights,
+
+
+
Ere fitly I could hope to play my part.
+
Think first, fight afterwards - the soldier's art: +
+
One taste of the old time sets all to rights.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XVI.
+
+
+
+
+
Not it! I fancied Cuthbert's reddening face +
+
Beneath its garniture of curly gold,
+
Dear fellow, till I almost felt him fold
+
+
+
An arm in mine to fix me to the place
+
That way he used. Alas, one night's disgrace! +
+
Out went my heart's new fire and left it cold.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XVII.
+
+
+
+
+
Giles then, the soul of honour - there he stands +
+
Frank as ten years ago when knighted first.
+
What honest men should dare (he said) he durst.
+
+
+
Good - but the scene shifts - faugh! what hangman hands
+
Pin to his breast a parchment? His own bands +
+
Read it. Poor traitor, spit upon and curst!
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XVIII.
+
+
+
+
+
Better this present than a past like that; +
+
Back therefore to my darkening path again!
+
No sound, no sight as far as eye could strain.
+
+
+
Will the night send a howlet or a bat?
+
I asked: when something on the dismal flat +
+
Came to arrest my thoughts and change their train.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XIX.
+
+
+
+
+
A sudden little river crossed my path +
+
As unexpected as a serpent comes.
+
No sluggish tide congenial to the glooms;
+
+
+
This, as it frothed by, might have been a bath
+
For the fiend's glowing hoof - to see the wrath +
+
Of its black eddy bespate with flakes and spumes.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XX.
+
+
+
+
+
So petty yet so spiteful! All along +
+
Low scrubby alders kneeled down over it;
+
Drenched willows flung them headlong in a fit
+
+
+
Of mute despair, a suicidal throng:
+
The river which had done them all the wrong, +
+
Whate'er that was, rolled by, deterred no whit.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXI.
+
+
+
+
+
Which, while I forded, - good saints, how I feared +
+
To set my foot upon a dead man's cheek,
+
Each step, or feel the spear I thrust to seek
+
+
+
For hollows, tangled in his hair or beard!
+
—It may have been a water-rat I speared, +
+
But, ugh! it sounded like a baby's shriek.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXII.
+
+
+
+
+
Glad was I when I reached the other bank. +
+
Now for a better country. Vain presage!
+
Who were the strugglers, what war did they wage,
+
+
+
Whose savage trample thus could pad the dank
+
Soil to a plash? Toads in a poisoned tank, +
+
Or wild cats in a red-hot iron cage—
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXIII.
+
+
+
+
+
The fight must so have seemed in that fell cirque. +
+
What penned them there, with all the plain to choose?
+
No foot-print leading to that horrid mews,
+
+
+
None out of it. Mad brewage set to work
+
Their brains, no doubt, like galley-slaves the Turk +
+
Pits for his pastime, Christians against Jews.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXIV.
+
+
+
+
+
And more than that - a furlong on - why, there! +
+
What bad use was that engine for, that wheel,
+
Or brake, not wheel - that harrow fit to reel
+
+
+
Men's bodies out like silk? with all the air
+
Of Tophet's tool, on earth left unaware, +
+
Or brought to sharpen its rusty teeth of steel.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXV.
+
+
+
+
+
Then came a bit of stubbed ground, once a wood, +
+
Next a marsh, it would seem, and now mere earth
+
Desperate and done with; (so a fool finds mirth,
+
+
+
Makes a thing and then mars it, till his mood
+
Changes and off he goes!) within a rood— +
+
Bog, clay and rubble, sand and stark black dearth.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXVI.
+
+
+
+
+
Now blotches rankling, coloured gay and grim, +
+
Now patches where some leanness of the soil's
+
Broke into moss or substances like boils;
+
+
+
Then came some palsied oak, a cleft in him
+
Like a distorted mouth that splits its rim +
+
Gaping at death, and dies while it recoils.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXVII.
+
+
+
+
+
And just as far as ever from the end! +
+
Nought in the distance but the evening, nought
+
To point my footstep further! At the thought,
+
+
+
A great black bird, Apollyon's bosom-friend,
+
Sailed past, nor beat his wide wing dragon-penned +
+
That brushed my cap—perchance the guide I sought.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXVIII.
+
+
+
+
+
For, looking up, aware I somehow grew, +
+
'Spite of the dusk, the plain had given place
+
All round to mountains - with such name to grace
+
+
+
Mere ugly heights and heaps now stolen in view.
+
How thus they had surprised me, - solve it, you! +
+
How to get from them was no clearer case.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXIX.
+
+
+
+
+
Yet half I seemed to recognise some trick +
+
Of mischief happened to me, God knows when—
+
In a bad dream perhaps. Here ended, then,
+
+
+
Progress this way. When, in the very nick
+
Of giving up, one time more, came a click +
+
As when a trap shuts - you're inside the den!
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXX.
+
+
+
+
+
Burningly it came on me all at once, +
+
This was the place! those two hills on the right,
+
Crouched like two bulls locked horn in horn in fight;
+
+
+
While to the left, a tall scalped mountain... Dunce,
+
Dotard, a-dozing at the very nonce, +
+
After a life spent training for the sight!
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXXI.
+
+
+
+
+
What in the midst lay but the Tower itself? +
+
The round squat turret, blind as the fool's heart
+
Built of brown stone, without a counterpart
+
+
+
In the whole world. The tempest's mocking elf
+
Points to the shipman thus the unseen shelf +
+
He strikes on, only when the timbers start.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXXII.
+
+
+
+
+
Not see? because of night perhaps? - why, day +
+
Came back again for that! before it left,
+
The dying sunset kindled through a cleft:
+
+
+
The hills, like giants at a hunting, lay
+
Chin upon hand, to see the game at bay,— +
+
"Now stab and end the creature - to the heft!"
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXXIII.
+
+
+
+
+
Not hear? when noise was everywhere! it tolled +
+
Increasing like a bell. Names in my ears
+
Of all the lost adventurers my peers,—
+
+
+
How such a one was strong, and such was bold,
+
And such was fortunate, yet each of old +
+
Lost, lost! one moment knelled the woe of years.
+
+
+
+


+
+
+
+
+
+
XXXIV.
+
+
+
+
+
There they stood, ranged along the hillsides, met +
+
To view the last of me, a living frame
+
For one more picture! in a sheet of flame
+
+
+
I saw them and I knew them all. And yet
+
Dauntless the slug-horn to my lips I set, +
+
And blew "Childe Roland to the Dark Tower came."
