Well, it's not from The Opening of the Field, which I just found in Google Books, so I'm stumped....

Can anyone tell me which poem this is by Duncan, and, if possible, where it was first collected? From the context I'm looking at, it might be from The Opening of the Field (1960), which, alas, is missing from my shelves.

There where great Artemis rides 

naked, lake-clear bright lady 

awakening her lovers, the hunters 

and the hunted, 

her horns sound in the night. 

Or are they horns of distant cars? 

themselves fading and yet insistent 

like memories . . .

We are awake now indeed, 

and we are her Kings . . .

Grateful for any help b/c, please.

Tony
