The Fugitive

The Fugitive is an classic Bengali Indian poetry volume by the great Bengali poet, Rabindranath Tagore that includes the following passage:

"Darkly you sweep on, Eternal Fugitive, round whose bodiless rush stagnant space frets into eddying bubbles of light.

Is your heart lost to the Lover calling you across his immeasurable loneliness?

Is the aching urgency of your haste the sole reason why your tangled tresses break into stormy riot and pearls of fire roll along your path as from a broken necklace?"
