about

Ezra Pound

Canto XLV
With Usura

With usura hath no man a house of good stone
each block cut smooth and well fitting
that design might cover their face,

with usura
hath no man a painted paradise on his church wall
no picture is made to endure nor to live with
but it is made to sell and sell quickly

with usura, sin against nature,
is thy bread ever more of stale rags
is thy bread dry as paper,
with no mountain wheat, no strong flour

with usura the line grows thick
with usura is no clear demarcation
and no man can find site for his dwelling.
Stonecutter is kept from his tone
weaver is kept from his loom

WITH USURA

Usura rusteth the chisel
It rusteth the craft and the craftsman

Usura slayeth the child in the womb
It stayeth the young man’s courting
It hath brought palsey to bed, lyeth
between the young bride and her bridegroom

CONTRA NATURAM
