Hey, I quite like Enoch Arden, particularly when the last line is omitted.
But then I still enjoy parts of Idyls of the King, particularly the
Passing of Arthur. How's this:
and from them rose
A cry that shivered to the tingling stars,
And, as it were one voice, an agony
Of lamentation, like a wind that shrills
All night in a waste land, where no one comes,
Or hath come, since the making of the world.
Of course Tennyson had never heard Schoenberg.
Richard
