from Anthem for St. Cecilia's Day
(for Benjamin Britten)
In a garden shady this holy lady
With reverent cadence and subtle psalm,
Like a black swan as death came on
Poured forth her song in perfect calm;
And by ocean's margin this innocent virgin
Constructed an organ to enlarge her prayer,
And notes tremulous from her great engine
Thundered out on the Roman air.
Blonde Aphrodite rose up excited,
Moved to delight by the melody,
White as an orchid she rode quite naked
In an oyster shell on top of the sea;
At sounds so entrancing the angels dancing
Came out of their trance into time again,
And around the wicked in Hell's abysses
The huge flame flickered and eased their pain.
– W.H. Auden (1940)
