THE+WASTE+LAND


 * The Waste Land ** – T. S. Eliot

 || I. THE BURIAL OF THE DEAD   A PRIL  is the cruellest month, breeding  The Chair she sat in, like a burnished throne, ||     ||  The river’s tent is broken: the last fingers of leaf ||     ||  Phlebas the Phoenician, a fortnight dead, ||     ||  After the torch-light red on sweaty faces ||     || If there were water ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   || <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"> <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"><range type="comment" id="183863">NOTES <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Not only the title, but the plan and a good deal of the incidental symbolism of the poem were suggested by Miss Jessie L. Weston’s book on the Grail legend: //From Ritual to Romance// (Macmillan). Indeed, so deeply am I indebted, Miss Weston’s book will elucidate the difficulties of the poem much better than my notes can do; and I recommend it (apart from the great interest of the book itself) to any who think such elucidation of the poem worth the trouble. To another work of anthropology I am indebted in general, one which has influenced our generation profoundly; I mean [|//The Golden Bough//]//<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">; //<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"> I have used especially the two volumes //Attis Adonis Osiris.// Anyone who is acquainted with these works will immediately recognise in the poem certain references to vegetation ceremonies. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 10pt;">I.

V. //Tristan und Isolde,// I, verses 5–8. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|42] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. Id. III, verse 24. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|46] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. I am not familiar with the exact constitution of the Tarot pack of cards, from which I have obviously departed to suit my own convenience. The Hanged Man, a member of the traditional pack, fits my purpose in two ways: because he is associated in my mind with the Hanged God of Frazer, and because I associate him with the hooded figure in the passage of the disciples to Emmaus in Part V. The Phoenician Sailor and the Merchant appear later; also the “crowds of people,” and Death by Water is executed in Part IV. The Man with Three Staves (an authentic member of the Tarot pack) I associate, quite arbitrarily, with the Fisher King himself. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|60] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. Cf. Baudelaire: <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“Fourmillante cité, cité pleine de rèves, <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Où le spectre en plein jour raccroche le passant.” <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|63] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. Cf. //Inferno,// III. 55–57:   <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"> “si lunga tratta <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">di gente, ch’io non avrei mai creduto <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">che morte tanta n’avesse disfatta.” <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|64] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">.

Cf. Day, //Parliament of Bees:// <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“When of the sudden, listening, you shall hear, <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“A noise of horns and hunting, which shall bring <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“Actaeon to Diana in the spring, <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“Where all shall see her naked skin…“ <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|197] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. Cf. Marvell, [|//To His Coy Mistress//]//<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. //<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|199] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. I do not know the origin of the ballad from which these lines are taken; it was reported to me from Sydney, Australia. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|202] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. V. Verlaine, //Parsifal.// <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|210] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. The currants were quoted at a price “carriage and insurance free to London”; and the Bill of Lading, etc. were to be handed to the buyer upon payment of the sight draft. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|218] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. Tiresias, although a mere spectator and not indeed a “character,” is yet the most important personage in the poem, uniting all the rest. Just as the one-eyed merchant, seller of currants, melts into the Phoenician Sailor, and the latter is not wholly distinct from Ferdinand Prince of Naples, so all the women are one woman, and the two sexes meet in Tiresias. What Tiresias //sees,// in fact, is the substance of the poem. The whole passage from Ovid is of great anthropological interest: <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">…Cum Iunone iocos et maior vestra profecto est <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Quam, quae contingit maribus’, dixisse, ‘voluptas.’ <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Illa negat; placuit quae sit sententia docti <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Quaerere Tiresiae: venus huic erat utraque nota. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Nam duo magnorum viridi coeuntia silva <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Corpora serpentum baculi violaverat ictu <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Deque viro factus, mirabile, femina septem <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Egerat autumnos; octavo rursus eosdem <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Vidit et ‘est vestrae si tanta potentia plagae,’ <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Dixit ‘ut auctoris sortem in contraria mutet, <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Nunc quoque vos feriam!’ percussis anguibus isdem <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Forma prior rediit genetivaque venit imago. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Arbiter hic igitur sumptus de lite iocosa <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Dicta Iovis firmat; gravius Saturnia iusto <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Nec pro materia fertur doluisse suique <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Iudicis aeterna damnavit lumina nocte, <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">At pater omnipotens (neque enim licet inrita cuiquam   <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Facta dei fecisse deo) pro lumine adempto <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Scire futura dedit poenamque levavit honore. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|221] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. This may not appear as exact as Sappho’s lines, but I had in mind the “longshore” or “dory” fisherman, who returns at nightfall. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|253] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. V. Goldsmith, the song in //The Vicar of Wakefield.// <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|257] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">.

The interior of St. Magnus Martyr is to my mind one of the finest among Wren’s interiors. See //The Proposed Demolition of Nineteen City Churches:// (P. S.

The Song of the (three) Thames-daughters begins here. From line 292 to 306 inclusive they speak in turn.

V. Froude, //Elizabeth,// Vol. I, ch. iv, letter of De Quadra to Philip of Spain: <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“In the afternoon we were in a barge, watching the games on the river. (The queen) was alone with Lord Robert and myself on the poop, when they began to talk nonsense, and went so far that Lord Robert at last said, as I was on the spot there was no reason why they should not be married if the queen pleased.” <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|293] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. Cf. //Purgatorio,// V. 133: <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"> “Ricorditi di me, che son la Pia; <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"> “Siena mi fe’, disfecemi Maremma.” <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|307] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. //V.// St. Augustine’s [|//Confessions//]//<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">: //<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"> “to Carthage then I came, where a cauldron of unholy loves sang all about mine ears.” <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|308] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. The complete text of the Buddha’s Fire Sermon (which corresponds in importance to the Sermon on the Mount) from which these words are taken, will be found translated in the late Henry Clarke Warren’s //Buddhism in Translation// (Harvard Oriental Series). Mr. Warren was one of the great pioneers of Buddhist studies in the occident. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|309] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. From St. Augustine’s //Confessions// again. The collocation of these two representatives of eastern and western asceticism, as the culmination of this part of the poem, is not an accident. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 10pt;">V. WHAT THE THUNDER SAID <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">In the first part of Part V three themes are employed: the journey to Emmaus, the approach to the Chapel Perilous (see Miss Weston’s book), and the present decay of eastern Europe. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|357] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. This is //Turdus aonalaschkae pallasii,// the hermit-thrush which I have heard in Quebec County. Chapman says (//Handbook of Birds in Eastern North America//) “it is most at home in secluded woodland and thickety retreats.… Its notes are not remarkable for variety or volume, but in purity and sweetness of tone and exquisite modulation they are unequaled.” Its “water-dripping song” is justly celebrated. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|360] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. The following lines were stimulated by the account of one of the Antarctic expeditions (I forget which, but I think one of Shackleton’s): it was related that the party of explorers, at the extremity of their strength, had the constant delusion that there was //one more member// than could actually be counted. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|366] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">–76. Cf. Hermann Hesse, //Blick ins Chaos:// “Schon ist halb Europa, schon ist zumindest der halbe Osten Europas auf dem Wege zum Chaos, fährt betrunken im heiligem Wahn am Abgrund entlang und singt dazu, singt betrunken und hymnisch wie Dmitri Karamasoff sang. Ueber diese Lieder lacht der Bürger beleidigt, der Heilige und Seher hört sie mit Tränen.” <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|401] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. “Datta, dayadhvam, damyata” (Give, sympathise, control). The fable of the meaning of the Thunder is found in the //Brihadaranyaka—Upanishad,// 5, 1. A translation is found in Deussen’s //Sechzig Upanishads des Veda,// p. 489. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|407] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">. Cf.

Cf. //Inferno,// XXXIII, 46: <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“ed io sentii chiavar l’uscio di sotto <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">all’orribile torre.” <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"> Also F. H. Bradley, //Appearance and Reality,// p. 346. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">“My external sensations are no less private to myself than are my thoughts or my feelings. In either case my experience falls within my own circle, a circle closed on the outside; and, with all its elements alike, every sphere is opaque to the others which surround it.… In brief, regarded as an existence which appears in a soul, the whole world for each is peculiar and private to that soul.” <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">[|424] <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">.

 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">With a shower of rain; we stopped in the colonnade, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">And went on in sunlight, into the Hofgarten, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">And drank coffee, and talked for an hour. ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * //<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Bin gar keine Russin, stamm’ aus Litauen, echt deutsch. //<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"> ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">And when we were children, staying at the archduke’s, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">My cousin’s, he took me out on a sled, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">And I was frightened. He said, Marie, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Marie, hold on tight. And down we went. ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">In the mountains, there you feel free. ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">I read, much of the night, and go south in the winter. ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">  ||   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">What are the roots that clutch, what branches grow ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Out of this stony rubbish? Son of man, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">You cannot say, or guess, for you know only ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">A heap of broken images, where the sun beats, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">And the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">And the dry stone no sound of water. Only ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">There is shadow under this red rock, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">(Come in under the shadow of this red rock), ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">And I will show you something different from either ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Your shadow at morning striding behind you ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Or your shadow at evening rising to meet you; ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">I will show you fear in a handful of dust. ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||

 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Under the brown fog of a winter dawn, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">A crowd flowed over London Bridge, so many, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||

 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">And each man fixed his eyes before his feet. ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Flowed up the hill and down King William Street, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">To where Saint Mary Woolnoth kept the hours ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||

 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">There I saw one I knew, and stopped him, crying “Stetson! ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||

 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Held up by standards wrought with fruited vines ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">From which a golden Cupidon peeped out ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||

 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Doubled the flames of sevenbranched candelabra ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Reflecting light upon the table as ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">The glitter of her jewels rose to meet it, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">From satin cases poured in rich profusion; ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">In vials of ivory and coloured glass ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Unstoppered, lurked her strange synthetic perfumes, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Unguent, powdered, or liquid—troubled, confused ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">And drowned the sense in odours; stirred by the air ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">That freshened from the window, these ascended ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||

 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Flung their smoke into the laquearia, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Stirring the pattern on the coffered ceiling. ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Huge sea-wood fed with copper ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
 * <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Burned green and orange, framed by the coloured stone, ||  <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">   ||
