What do I hear? Is it the night wind howling, or the hanged man sighing on the gibbet? • Could it be a cricket singing, hidden in the moss and the sterile ivy, which out of pity covers the woods? • Could it be a fly hunting and sounding its horn around those ears deaf to the fanfare of the halloos? • Could it be a scarab beetle plucking, in its halting flight, a bloody hair from his bald skull? • Or could it be a spider, weaving a length of muslin as a tie for that strangled neck? • It is the bell that tolls from the walls of a town beyond the horizon, and the corpse of a hanged man that is reddened by the setting sun. • • -- Original in French -- • Ah! ce que j'entends, serait-ce la bise nocturne qui glapit, ou le pendu qui pousse un soupir sur la fourche patibulaire? • Serait-ce quelque grillon qui chante tapi dans la mousse et le lierre stérile dont par pitié se chausse le bois? • Serait-ce quelque mouche en chasse sonnant du cor autour de ces oreilles sourdes à la fanfare des hallali? • Serait-ce quelque escarbot qui cueille en son vol inégal un cheveu sanglant à son crâne chauve? • Ou bien serait-ce quelque araignée qui brode une demi-aune de mousseline pour cravate à ce col étranglé? • C'est la cloche qui tinte aux murs d'une ville sous l'horizon, et la carcasse d'un pendu que rougit le soleil couchant. • • -------------------------------------------------------------------- • **Disclaimer: As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
