THE KING IN YELLOW BY ROBERT W. CHAMBERS Original publication date: 1895 THE KING IN YELLOW IS DEDICATED TO MY BROTHER CONTENTS THE REPAIRER OF REPUTATIONS THE MASK THE COURT OF THE DRAGON THE YELLOW SIGN THE DEMOISELLE D’YS THE PROPHETS’ PARADISE THE STREET OF THE FOUR WINDS THE STREET OF THE FIRST SHELL THE STREET OF OUR LADY OF THE FIELDS RUE BARRÉE “Along the shore the cloud waves break, The twin suns sink behind the lake, The shadows lengthen In Carcosa.
Strange is the night where black stars rise, And strange moons circle through the skies But stranger still is Lost Carcosa.
Songs that the Hyades shall sing, Where flap the tatters of the King, Must die unheard in Dim Carcosa.
