Question
This object is compared to “Caged Circe” and described as the “romantic passageway first seen by the eye of the mind, then by the eye” in the opening poem of Marianne Moore’s collection Tell Me, Tell Me. In a poem titled for this object, the question “shall the hands be drawn away, to die?” appears before an appeal to the “Hand of Fire.” This title object’s “swift / unfractioned idiom” is praised by a speaker who asks, “Unto us lowliest sometimes sweep.” A poem titled for this object begins, (*) “How many dawns, chill from his rippling rest / The seagull’s wings shall dip and pivot him” and concludes with the command “descend / and of the curveship lend a myth to God.” That poem titled for this object contains the sections “Ave Maria” and “Powhatan’s Daughter,” which follow the opening “Proem.” For 10 points, name this structure in New York that titles a long poem by Hart Crane. ■END■
