  • Robert Graves the White Goddess
    ROBERT GRAVES THE WHITE GODDESS IN DEDICATION All saints revile her, and all sober men Ruled by the God Apollo's golden mean— In scorn of which I sailed to find her In distant regions likeliest to hold her Whom I desired above all things to know, Sister of the mirage and echo. It was a virtue not to stay, To go my headstrong and heroic way Seeking her out at the volcano's head, Among pack ice, or where the track had faded Beyond the cavern of the seven sleepers: Whose broad high brow was white as any leper's, Whose eyes were blue, with rowan-berry lips, With hair curled honey-coloured to white hips. Green sap of Spring in the young wood a-stir Will celebrate the Mountain Mother, And every song-bird shout awhile for her; But I am gifted, even in November Rawest of seasons, with so huge a sense Of her nakedly worn magnificence I forget cruelty and past betrayal, Careless of where the next bright bolt may fall. FOREWORD am grateful to Philip and Sally Graves, Christopher Hawkes, John Knittel, Valentin Iremonger, Max Mallowan, E. M. Parr, Joshua IPodro, Lynette Roberts, Martin Seymour-Smith, John Heath-Stubbs and numerous correspondents, who have supplied me with source- material for this book: and to Kenneth Gay who has helped me to arrange it. Yet since the first edition appeared in 1946, no expert in ancient Irish or Welsh has offered me the least help in refining my argument, or pointed out any of the errors which are bound to have crept into the text, or even acknowledged my letters.

    By A capstone project submitted for Graduation with University Honors University Honors University of California, Riverside APPROVED ___________________________________________ Dr. Department of ___________________________________________ Dr. Richard Cardullo, Howard H Hays Chair and Faculty Director, University Honors Interim Vice Provost, Undergraduate Education Abstract ii Acknowledgments iii Table of Contents Abstract…………………………………………………………………………………………....ii Acknowledgments……………………………………….………………………...………..…....iii iv The Song of Purple Summer Dear Diary, Friends would make this school year so much easier… I start in three days. I haven’t had a best friend since second grade. My last best friend had long blonde hair, and often wore it in two braids. We had known each other since kindergarten. We would always run around on the playground pretending some witch had cursed the wall next to the swingset, and would watch us through the cement blocks that made it up. Me, my blonde bestie, and our third musketeer would investigate that wall for hidden messages in order to stop whatever curse had befallen such a wall at an elementary school. At the end of that year, my best friend moved schools. I haven’t really talked to her since, because cell phones didn’t exist at that age. I have her on social media now, but I hardly check it enough to really spare her more than a glance. I do think about her every so often. I wonder what she’s doing now. Dear Diary, Started my second year of high school this week. Everyone is more confident. None of the friendships I made towards the end of the year last year stuck apparently.
