Ambrose Bierce

Here you will find the Poem The Bride of poet Ambrose Bierce

The Bride

?YOU know, my friends, with what a brave carouse
I made a second marriage in my house,?
Divorced old barren Reason from my bed
And took the Daughter of the Vine to spouse.?

So sang the Lord of Poets. In a gleam 
Of light that made her like an angel seem,
The Daughter of the Vine said: ?I myself
Am Reason, and the Other was a Dream.?
