It was as deep as England. It held
Pike too immense to stir, so immense and old
That past nightfall I dared not cast.”

“Let the lamp affix its beam.
The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream.”

"The Emperor of Ice Cream"
Harmonium (1923)
Source: The Collected Poems
Context: Take from the dresser of deal,
Lacking the three glass knobs, that sheet
On which she embroidered fantails once
And spread it so as to cover her face.
If her horny feet protrude, they come
To show how cold she is, and dumb.
Let the lamp affix its beam.
The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream.
