Engravings by Blair Hughes-Stanton: The ship of death (frontispiece) -- Now it is autumn -- Now launch the small ship, now as the body dies -- I am in the hands of the unkown God -- Lo, we are in the midst of the sunderers -- The triumph -- Behold your cross, Christians -- Lo! God is one God! -- And they rock, and they rock, through the sensual ageless ages -- O moon, great lady of the heavenly few -- Come, holy silence! -- Reach me a gentian , give me a torch -- Give me the moon at my feet.
