robertsnickc: “The sea is a mirror, not only to the clouds, the sun, the moon & the stars, but to all one’s dreams & speculations. The sea tells us that everything is changing & that nothing ever changes, that tides go out & return, that all existence is a rhythm.”
~ Arthur Symons, 1918

Samuraiko: "Waves of the gentle waters of the healing night,
Flow over me with silent peace and golden dark,
Wash me of sound, wash me of colour, drown the day;
Light the tall golden candles and put out the day."

Swims around me like a stream,
And your eyes have caught the light
Of a moon-enchanted dream,
And your arms glide round about me,
And fade into a dream.

iansjasper: Cities by Arthur Symons
The last sunset of the year had been stormy ; the whole sky, as I saw it from the Pincio, blazed like a conflagration; fire caught the farthest roofs of Rome, and seemed to sear the edges and outskirts of the city...
tmac_bill: Influence in Victorian Lit 1/2
The flagrant, unacknowledged appropriation of what Pater called "mere matter" that was undertaken by his successors, especially Arthur Symons and Oscar Wilde, has often been misrepresented as a kind of plagiarism.

neilphilipmyth: An aged faun of old red clay
Laughs from the grassy bowling-green,
Foretelling doubtless some decay
Of mortal moments so serene
That lead us lightly on our way
(Love’s piteous pilgrims have we been!)
To this last hour that runs away
Dancing to the tambourine.
Arthur Symons
eudaemonist: ‘Arthur Symons was talking of some foreign city, carrying in his waistcoat pocket, as it were, the genius loci, anon to be embalmed in Pateresque prose. I forget whether this time it was Rome or Seville or Moscow or what…’ —Max Beerbohm, ‘First Meetings with W.B. Yeats.’

In the folds where it hath lain,

Deeply folded in my brain,

You remain..

DrMarkDoyle: A small pleasure we're denied in this zoom-zoom age is that of slicing through uncut pages in books and keeping a sharp knife handy for the purpose.
This is Cities and Sea-Coasts and Islands by Arthur Symons (1919) and sadly not all of the pages are like this.
foxy_ronald: a voice is in my ear,
And is the voice my own? the words I say
Fall strangely, like a dream, across the day;
And the dim sunshine is a dream. How clear,
New as the world to lovers’ eyes, appear
The men and women passing on their way!
(Arthur Symons, "The Absinthe-Drinker")
