Canticle

Read "Canticle" at The Eldritch Dark:

As with "Fantaisie D'antan", which I read yesterday, "Canticle" seems a rather middling poem by the standards of Clark Ashton Smith (CAS).  As is common to his other work in verse, there is a dash of fantasy and a dash of romance, but somehow the pieces just don't come together to form a memorable whole.
