What is a garden All day working happily down near the stream bed the light passing into the remote opalescence it returns to as the year wakes toward winter a season of rain in a year already rich in rain with masked light emerging on all sides in the new leaves of the palms quietly waving time of mud and slipping and of overhearing the water under the sloped ground going on whispering as it travels time of rain thundering at night and of rocks rolling and echoing in the torrent and of looking up after noon through the high branches to see fine rain drifting across the sunlight over the valley that was abused and at last left to fill with thickets of rampant aliens bringing habits but no stories under the mango trees already vast as clouds there I keep discovering beneath the tangle the ancient shaping of water to which the light of an hour comes back as to a secret and there I planted young palms in places I had not pondered until then I imagined their roots setting out in the dark knowing without knowledge I kept trying to see them standing in that bend of the valley in the light that would come

Poetry The Vixen
W. S. Merwin
Alfred A. Knopf, $21
by Richard Howard Writing an essay, nearly three decades ago, in which I attempted to present some account of Merwin's achievement in the first fifteen years of his art six volumes of poetry, four verse plays, many translations, and a number of prose texts, the latter more often travel pieces than criticism I happened to invoke Tennyson as a "punctual" exponent of contemporary feeling comparable to Merwin; now it seems to me that my analogy would have been more answerable had I waited thirty years and another six volumes of poetry to cite the earlier poet: "The hills are shadows and they flow / From form . . . ." For Merwin's new book of 64 linked poems linked by theme, tone, trope, and fastidiously evolved style is certainly the closest any modern poet (by which I mean a poet committed as Merwin has so faithfully been to the energies of fragmentation, erasure, and all those energies we identify as negative ) has come to that glorious invention of Tennyson's which was to have such a remarkable progeny in the next century, the poetic sequence published, anonymously, in 1850, In Memoriam Not even Thomas Hardy, I venture, so loyally worked his visions of landscape together as Merwin has done in this new poem (I make it out to be one poem in 64 sections, which, though they have titles, have no punctuation;

Purgatorio, Canto XXIX Singing the way a lady sings in love,
"Blessèd are they whose sins are covered," and like the nymphs who once wandered alone
then she went, against the flow of the river,
We had not taken a hundred steps between us
And we had not gone far in that direction
saying, "My brother, look and listen." And all at once there was a shining
but whereas lightning is gone as swiftly
and in my mind I was saying, "What can this be?" And running through the luminous air was
that there, where the earth and heaven obeyed,
If she had only stayed devoutly under
While I walked on among so many before us, the air under the green boughs Oh, most holy virgins, if I have endured Now is the time for Helicon to brim over A little farther, seven golden trees but when I had come so near to them that the faculty that nourishes the discourse and heard "Hosanna" in the singing voices. Above us flamed the beautiful panoply, Full of wonder, I turned around toward Then I turned my face to the high things again The lady scolded me: "Why are you so

ABOUT THE BOOK
Describing M. S. Merwin as a moral poet, H. L. Hix identifies the characteristics that have set Merwin's voice apart and suggests that an underlying vision of human interconnectedness and affinity with nature permeates his poetry. Hix surveys Merwin's oeuvre to show that despite a reputation for difficulty and obscurity, his verse is clear and direct. Through close readings of Merwin's verse, Hix traces the emergence of the poet's dominant thematic concerns. Beginning with the interest in myth that permeates "A Mask for Janus", Merwin's focus turns successively to apocalypse, ecology, and society, until he arrives at one theme that incorporates all the others: the theme of place. Hix demonstrates that whether writing the angry protest poems of The Lice or the intimate family reminiscences of Opening the Hand
