The Three Poets

Ezra Pound

CANDIDIA has taken a new lover

And three poets are gone into mourning,

The first has written a long elegy to “Chloris.”

To “Chloris chaste and cold,” his “only Chloris”.

The second has written a sonnet

upon the mutability of woman,

And the third writes an epigram to Candidia.
