Invading the small sensitive flower of the throat
They brought their mute, unuttered resonances
To kindle the figures of a heavenly speech.
(Savitri, Book 3 Canto 4)
Desire, the troubled seed of things
(Savitri, Book 3 Canto 4)
He tore desire up from its bleeding roots
And offered to the gods the vacant place.
(Savitri, Book 3 Canto 5)
An abyss yawned suddenly beneath her heart.
A vast nameless fear dragged at her nerves
As drags a wild beast its half-slaughtered prey.
(Savitri, Book 7 Canto 6)
There crawled through every tense and aching nerve
Leaving behind its poignant quaking trail
A nameless and unutterable fear.
(Savitri, Book 2 Canto 7)
They brought their mute, unuttered resonances
To kindle the figures of a heavenly speech.
(Savitri, Book 3 Canto 4)
Desire, the troubled seed of things

And offered to the gods the vacant place.

As drags a wild beast its half-slaughtered prey.

Leaving behind its poignant quaking trail
A nameless and unutterable fear.
