MY BROTHER | Along the shore the cloud waves break, | | The twin suns sink behind the lake, | | The shadows lengthen | | In Carcosa. | | | | Strange is the night where black stars rise, | | And strange moons circle through the skies | | But stranger still is | | Lost Carcosa. | | | | Songs that the Hyades shall sing, | | Where flap the tatters of the King, | | Must die unheard in | | Dim Carcosa. | | | | Song of my soul, my voice is dead; | | Die thou, unsung, as tears unshed | | Shall dry and die in | | Lost Carcosa. | | | | Cassilda's Song in "The King in Yellow," Act i, Scene 2. | | CONTENTS | | | | THE REPAIRER OF REPUTATIONS | | THE MASK | | IN THE COURT OF THE DRAGON | | THE YELLOW SIGN | | THE DEMOISELLE D'YS | | THE PROPHETS' PARADISE | | THE STREET OF THE FOUR WINDS | | THE STREET OF THE FIRST SHELL | | THE STREET OF OUR LADY OF THE FIELDS | | RUE BARRÉE |
