This author adopted the perspective of Kaspar Hauser in a poem that begins "I came here, calm, an orphan, my sole wealth my tranquil eyes." This poet wrote of "those children's voices in the dome!" in the last line of his sonnet "Parsifal," which T. S. Eliot quoted in its original language in The Waste Land. He wrote of "charming maskers, masked shepherdesses" who "sing in a minor key / Of all-conquering love" in a poem that begins "Your soul is the choicest of countries." The image "With long sobs / the violin-throbs / of autumn wound / my heart" begins this author's poem (*) "Autumn Song." Faure and Debussy set his poem "Clair de lune" to music. The poems in his volume Romances sans paroles reflect his affair with a poet whom he once shot at in a drunken rage. For 10 points, name this French Symbolist poet of the PoÃ¨mes saturniens and lover of Arthur Rimbaud ("RAM-beau").
