Love Calls Us to the Things of the World
Love Calls Us to the Things of the World
The eyes open to a cry of pulleys,
And spirited from sleep, the astounded soul
Hangs for a moment bodiless and simple
As false dawn.
Outside the open window
The morning air is all awash with angels.
Some are in bed-sheets, some are in blouses,
Some are in smocks: but truly there they are.
Now they are rising together in calm swells
Of halcyon feeling, filling whatever they wear With the deep joy of their impersonal breathing; Now they are flying in place, conveying The terrible speed of their omnipresence, moving And staying like white water; and now of a sudden They swoon down into so rapt a quiet That nobody seems to be there. The soul shrinks From all that it is about to remember, From the punctual rape of every blessed day, And cries

    Richard Wilbur: Obscurely Called Nearing eighty years of age, Richard Wilbur has recently published Mayflies , a new book of poems and translations. This slim volume has attracted slight and sometimes slighting notice in most literary publications. America’s poetry establishment does not quite know what to make of its former Poet Laureate. For half a century, this eminent translator of French Enlightenment plays has also persisted in writing measured yet passionate religious verse in the manner of Donne or Herbert. From his first book of poems, The Beautiful Changes , published in 1947, Wilbur has chronicled the permutations of an often-challenged yet ever-resilient faith. Consider this early sonnet called “Praise in Summer,” which runs as follows: Obscurely yet most surely called to praise,
    As summer sometimes calls us all, I said
    The hills are heavens full of branching ways
    Where star-nosed moles fly overhead the dead;

    MAIN LIBRARY
    Richard Wilbur: Islands of Order Richard Wilbur is universally known, and sometimes slighted, as a poet of light and graceful measures. This image was perhaps fixed by some of the frothier poems in Wilbur’s first book of verse, The Beautiful Changes , which was published in 1947 and included such confections as “The Melongène” and “Attention Makes Infinity.” Yet in the latter we see how “every yard, alive with laundry white, / billowing wives and leaves, gives way to air,” and already we find in that white billow, that light air, the hint of a weightier work to come—the laundry-laden title poem of Wilbur’s third collection, “Love Calls Us to the Things of This World.” Things of This World appeared in 1956, the same year that Wilbur made a name in theater with the lyrics for Candide , the critically-acclaimed musical scored by Leonard Bernstein. Subsequently Wilbur became the foremost translator of classic French plays, a literary niche which has afforded him a good living. Financial security is beyond the reach of most literati , and even the non-Marxists may feel pangs of class envy when they contemplate someone who need never teach freshman composition. Wilbur’s work has always tended to trouble instinctive egalitarians. Perhaps this is why Anthony Hecht, in an otherwise friendly review of Wilbur’s

    Download PDF Richard Wilbur was born in New York City on March 1, 1921, to Lawrence L. Wilbur, a portrait painter, and Helen Purdy Wilbur, whose father and grandfather had been newspaper editors. Wilbur felt influences from both sides of his family. He enjoyed drawing and creating cartoons when he was young, but he also had a passion for words. His interests were combined when he began writing poems, since he uses vivid visual images in his poetry.
    When he was two, Wilbur moved with his family to rural New Jersey. They rented a pre-Revolutionary War stone house on a four-hundred-acre estate owned by an English millionaire. Growing up in this environment, Wilbur developed his awareness of and appreciation for nature, which is evident in... This is a free excerpt. For the full page get the:

    (b. 1921)
    Contributing Editor: Bernard F. Engel
    Comparisons, Contrasts, Connections
    1. Compare Wilbur's vigorous defense of traditional patterns, metrics, and rhyme with Olson's essay "Projective Verse" or similar arguments for "open form." Early comments on Wilbur's tight artistic discipline appear in M. L. Rosenthal's The Modern Poets (Oxford University Press, 1960). Rosenthal admires Wilbur's technical skill but argues that his work is overly traditional. A strong defense of Wilbur as a "darker" poet, one "more complex, passionate, and original" than critics sometimes take him to be, appears in Bruce Michelson's book. A number of critical views are summarized in Engel's Research Guide article. 2. Donald Hill's Richard Wilbur (1967) has several passages discussing critics who compare Wilbur's work with that of Robert Lowell , Howard Nemerov, and others. Useful comparison could also be made with Richard Eberharta poet who is equally convinced that the flesh is poetry's environment but is nevertheless more willing to move into mysticism and exclamation.

    Richard Wilbur
    Richard Wilbur isn't much in favor these days, but the following poem I happened on gives me pleasure. Still and all, I could imagine assailing it for certain qualities. What do you think?
    In the Smoking Car
    The eyelids meet. He'll catch a little nap.
    The grizzled, crew-cut head drops to his chest.
    It shakes above the briefcase on his lap.
    Close voices breathe, "Poor sweet, he did his best."
    "Poor sweet, poor sweet," the bird-hushed glades repeat,
    Through which in quiet pomp his litter goes,
    Carried by native girls with naked feet.
    A sighing stream concurs in his repose.
    Could he but think, he might recall to mind
    The righteous mutiny or sudden gale
    That beached him here; the dear ones left behind . . . So near the ending, he forgets the tale. Were he to lift his eyelids now, he might Behold his maiden porters, brown and bare. But even here he has no appetite. It is enough to know that they are there. Enough that now a honeyed music swells

    Shame
    Richard Wilbur
    It is a cramped little state with no foreign policy,
    Save to be thought inoffensive. The grammar of the language
    Has never been fathomed, owing to the national habit
    Of allowing each sentence to trail off in confusion.
    Those who have visited Scusi, the capital city,
    Report that the railway-route from Schuldig passes
    Through country best described as unrelieved.
    Sheep are the national product. The faint inscription
    Over the city gates may perhaps be rendered,
    "I'm afraid you won't find much of interest here."
    Census-reports which give the population As zero are, of course, not to be trusted, Save as reflecting the natives' flustered insistence That they do not count, as well as their modest horror Of letting one's sex be known in so many words. The uniform grey of the nondescript buildings, the absence Of churches or comfort-stations, have given observers An odd impression of ostentatious meanness, And it must be said of the citizens (muttering by In their ratty sheepskins, shying at cracks in the sidewalk) That they lack the peace of mind of the truly humble.

    Richard Wilbur Quotes It is true that the poet does not directly address his neighbors; but he does address a great congress of persons who dwell at the back of his mind, a congress of all those who have taught him and whom he has admired; they constitute his ideal audience and his better self.
    Richard Wilbur

    To this congress the poet speaks not of peculiar and personal things, but of what in himself is most common, most anonymous, most fundamental, most true of all men.
    Richard Wilbur

    What is the opposite of two? A lonely me, a lonely you.
