- In the alcove whose curtains are cloth-of-gold, and
- whose pillars are fluted sapphire, reclines the
- emperor Chan, on his couch of ebony set with opals
- and rubies, and cushioned with the furs of unknown
- and gorgeous beasts. With implacable and weary
- gaze, from beneath unmoving lids that seem carven
- of purple-veined onyx, he stares at the crystal
- windows, giving upon the infinite fiery azures of a
- tropic sky and sea. Oppressive as nightmare, a
- formless nameless fatigue, heavier than any burden
- the slaves of the mines must bear, lies forever at his
- heart: all deliriums of Love and wine, the agonizing
- ecstasy of drugs, even the deepest and the faintest
- pulse of delight or pain-all are proven, all are futile,
- for the outworn but insatiate emperor. Even for a new
- grief, or a subtler pang than any felt before, he thinks,
- lying on his bed of ebony, that he would give the
- silver and vermilion of all his mines, with the crowded
- caskets, the carcanets and crowns that lie in his most
- immemorial treasure-vault, Vainly, with the verse of
- the more inventive poets, the fanciful purple-
- threaded fabrics of the subtlest looms, the unfamiliar
- gems and minerals from the uttermost land, the pallid
- leaves and blood-like petals of a rare and venomous
- blossom-vainly, with all these, and many stranger
- devices, wilder, more wonderful diversions, the
- slaves and sultanas have sought to alleviate the iron
- hours. One by one he has dismissed them with a
- weary gesture. And now, in the silence of the heavily
- curtained alcove, he lies alone, with the canker of
- ennui at his heart, like the undying mordant worm at
- the heart of the dead.
