Stephen Crane (Стивен Крейн)

* * *

I

There was a man and a woman
Who sinned.
Then did the man heap the punishment
All upon the head of her,
And went away gaily.

II

There was a man and a woman
Who sinned.
And the man stood with her.
As upon her head, so upon his,
Fell blow and blow,
And all people screaming, "Fool!"
He was a brave heart.

III

He was a brave heart.
Would you speak with him, friend?
Well, he is dead,
And there went your opportunity.
Let it be your grief
That he is dead
And your opportunity gone;
For, in that, you were a coward.

1. There was set before me a mighty hill
2. I explain the silvered passing of a ship at night
3. Blustering God
4. Two or three angels
5. Ay, workman, make me a dream
