Tenebras Aduersus Mouisse

Approaching the heart of the darkness which grows stronger day after
day, Thomas Hardy's "In Tenebris" seems to me at least to amplify the
heart of this world and time.

First published in 1901, this is a sequence of three dark meditations,
divided into six quatrains in poem #1, four in #2, Five in #3.
