More about the book
"Between the sterner flights of logic, I have sought to set some little alightings of what may be poetry. They are tributes to Beauty, unworthy to stand alone; yet perversely, in my mind, now at the end, I know not whether I mean the Thought for the Fancy-or the Fancy for the Thought, or why the book trails off to playing, rather than standing strong on unanswering fact. But this is alway-is it not?-the Riddle of Life." Contents: - Credo - The Shadow of Year - A Litany at Atlanta - The Souls of White Folk - The Riddle of the Sphinx - The Hands of Ethiopia - The Princess of the Hither Isles - Of Work and Wealth - The Second Coming - "The Servant in the House" - Jesus Christ in Texas - Of the Ruling of Men - The Call - The Damnation of Women - Children of the Moon - The Immortal Child - Almighty Death - Of Beauty and Death - The Prayers of God - The Comet - A Hymn to the Peoples
