Brain Strain Fun Stuff The Facts Other Stillness By James Elroy Flecker When the words rustle no more, And the last work's done, When the bolt lies deep in the door, And Fire, our Sun, Falls on the dark-laned meadows of the floor; When from the clock's last time to the next chime Silence beats his drum, And Space with gaunt grey eyes and her brother Time Wheeling and whispering come, She with the mould of form and he with the loom of rhyme, Then twittering out in the night my thought-birds flee, I am emptied of all my dreams: I only hear Earth turning, only see Ether's long bankless streams, And only know I should drown if you Laid not your hand on me.

Brain Strain Fun Stuff The Facts Other To a Poet a Thousand Years Hence By James Elroy Flecker I who am dead a thousand years, And wrote this sweet archaic song, Send you my words for messengers The way I shall not pass along. I care not if you bridge the seas, Or ride secure in the cruel sky, Or build consummate palaces Of metal or of masonry. But have you wine and music still, And statues and a bright-eyed love, And foolish thoughts of good and ill, And prayers to them who sit above? How shall we conquer? Like a wind That falls at eve our fancies blow, And old Maeonides the blind Said it three thousand years ago

JAMES ELROY FLECKER Three photographs by T. E. Lawrence, 1912 Vintage prints The British Museum's excavations at Carchemish involved frequent dealings with the Ottoman authorities. Woolley and Lawrence were therefore heavily dependent on advice from the local British Consular staff. Ralph Fontana, the British Consul in Aleppo, and his wife Winifred were very pleasant company; they possessed an excellent library of contemporary literature and Lawrence often visited them to borrow books. It was probably through them that he heard that James Elroy Flecker (1884-1915) had been appointed British Vice-Consul at Beirut. Lawrence was in Beirut on his way to England when Flecker and his wife arrived there in August 1911, and they spent a whole day together. Thereafter Lawrence was welcomed by the Fleckers whenever he passed through Beirut. They regarded him and Fontana as the most civilised company they had found in the East. In the summer of 1912, after Lawrence had been forced to abandon his plans to go on a trek in Syria, he and Dahoum spent the month of August in Jebail. While there, they visited the Fleckers at Areya where these photographs were taken. By the spring of 1913 Flecker was already sick with tuberculosis and he was forced to leave Beirut. Lawrence continued to correspond with him, and after the war kept in contact with his widow.

James Elroy Flecker "Flecker had a splendor and breadth of vision unmatched among young English poets of his time" (Philadelphia North American). His writings include poetry, short stories, non-fiction prose, and two plays that were published posthumously. Though sometimes grouped chronologically with the Georgian poets, Flecker's real literary affinity is with the French Parnassian school. The principal editions of his main works are listed below, along with a selection of the biographical and critical literature.

36. The Golden Journey To Samarkand By James Elroy Flecker do not think of us. VOICES OF THE CARAVAN (in the distance, singing)We make the Golden Journey to Samarkand. james elroy flecker. http://homepages.ihug.com.au/~plato/poetry-cl-samarkand.html

THE GOLDEN JOURNEY TO SAMARKAND PROLOGUE I We who with songs beguile your pilgrimage And swear that Beauty lives though lilies die, We Poets of the proud old lineage Who sing to find your hearts, we know not why, - What shall we tell you? Tales, marvellous tales Of ships and stars and isles where good men rest, Where nevermore the rose of sunset pales, And winds and shadows fall towards the West: And there the world's first huge white-bearded kings In dim glades sleeping, murmur in their sleep, And closer round their breasts the ivy clings, Cutting its pathway slow and red and deep. II And how beguile you? Death has no repose Warmer and deeper than the Orient sand Which hides the beauty and bright faith of those Who make the Golden Journey to Samarkand. And now they wait and whiten peaceably, Those conquerors, those poets, those so fair: They know time comes, not only you and I, But the whole world shall whiten, here or there; When those long caravans that cross the plain With dauntless feet and sound of silver bells Put forth no more for glory or for gain

EPILOGUE At the Gate of the Sun, Bagdad, in olden time THE MERCHANTS ( together Away, for we are ready to a man! Our camels sniff the evening and are glad. Lead on, O Master of the Caravan: Lead on the Merchant-Princes of Bagdad. THE CHIEF DRAPER Have we not Indian carpets dark as wine, Turbans and sashes, gowns and bows and veils, And broideries of intricate design, And printed hangings in enormous bales? THE CHIEF GROCER We have rose-candy, we have spikenard, Mastic and terebinth and oil and spice, And such sweet jams meticulously jarred As God's own Prophet eats in Paradise. THE PRINCIPAL JEWS And we have manuscripts in peacock styles By Ali of Damascus; we have swords Engraved with storks and apes and crocodiles, And heavy beaten necklaces, for Lords. THE MASTER OF THE CARAVAN But you are nothing but a lot of Jews. THE PRINCIPAL JEWS Sir, even dogs have daylight, and we pay. THE MASTER OF THE CARAVAN But who are ye in rags and rotten shoes, You dirty-bearded, blocking up the way? THE PILGRIMS We are the Pilgrims, master; we shall go

TENEBRIS INTERLUCENTEM Un jilguero que andaba perdido Cantaba en una rama ennegrecida en el infierno, Hasta que todos los espectros recordaron bien Para atraer un hermano a su lado. James Elroy Flecker. Por el camino que no he de pasar. No me importa si tiendes puentes sobre el mar O cabalgas seguro por el cielo cruel O bien si levantas palacios imponentes De metal o de ladrillo. Y estatuas y un amor de mirada alegre, Y pensamientos tontos sobre el bien y el mal, Estudioso de nuestra dulce lengua inglesa, Lee mis palabras por la noche a solas: Yo era un poeta; era joven. Ni nunca he de poder darte la mano, James Elroy Flecker.
