Appendix: Fire and the Poems from The Plumed
Serpent
The gap of over five years between Birds, Beasts and Flowers and Pansies is not quite empty of poetry. The twenty-six poems (786-813) contained in the novel The Plumed Serpent, begun a matter of months after the completion of Birds, Beasts with The American Eagle, and worked at during different sojourns in Mexico between 1923 and 1925, fill in part of it. There are also nine poems (762-84) contained in the posthumously published Fire and Other Poems, some of which seem to belong to this period, though precise dating is problematic. 1
There is a balance maintained in Birds, Beasts which breaks down at the end into the irreverent, popular polemic of The American Eagle, on one side, and on the other the quasi-religious poem, more private and formal, in Spirits Summoned West. Fire has poems of the first type, most obviously 0! Americans and three poems, Traitors, Softly, Then, Softly, and Are You Pining?, which read like pansies; and of the latter type too, such as Change of Life, and Reach Over (where Lawrence announces his own advent, Quetzalcoatllike). But it is The Plumed Serpent which contains Lawrence's most explicitly religious poems. By their very explicitness and schematization these 'hymns' seem to me unrepresentative either of Lawrence's religious thought or of his poetry.
Within the novel the 'hymns' function as part of the revival of an ancient religion which is supposed to be reintroduced into Mexico in a theocratic revolution inspired by Don Ram6n and Don Cipriano. In the novel this revival, in which the two leaders present themselves as new incarnations of the Aztec gods Quetzalcoati and Huitzilopochtli, takes place for much of the time under the critical Western eye of Kate, an Irishwoman.

context is lost, of course, when The Plumed Serpent poems are read in isolation, and without it there is much which remains obscure and extreme.
But the trappings of a reconstituted religion disguise the continuity which is there with the rest of Lawrence's poetry, in the same way that they overshadow the continuity in basic moral concern of The Plumed Serpent with novels such as The Rainbow, Women in Love, and The Lost Girl. What is best amongst the poetry which the 'tremendous apparatus of mysticism'2 in the novel gives rise to is that in which we simply have a man speaking to us out of the singleness of his complex being (not a priest, a hero, or a demi-god}, in the way that Matthew does in The Evangelistic Beasts. St Matthew is really the best way into the mythology of The Plumed Serpent and its poems - which is another way of saying that what we have in the novel are, once again, poetic constructions being used literally in a politico-religious creed, the church of Quetzalcoati with its attendant ritual and symbols. One of the origins of Huitzilopochtli, for example, is also in Birds, Beasts, in the poem Turkey-Cock: the turkey's drumming wings suggest 'the ponderous, sombre sound of the great drum of Huichilobos I In pyramid Mexico, during sacrifice'. Turkey-Cock ends with the question,
And those sombre, dead, feather-lustrous Aztecs, Amerindians,
In all the sinister splendour of their red blood-sacrifices, Do they stand under the dawn, half-godly, half-demon,
awaiting the cry of the turkey-cock?
- to which the answer suggested in Birds, Beasts is: only after a further process of refinement has been gone through.
Lawrence's Quetzalcoatl and Huitzilopochtli have much to do with the images of his own poetry, little to do with the monstrous deities of the Aztecs. His gods are only men: Quetzalcoatl is 'only the symbol of the best a man may be', necessary because 'a man's blood can't beat in the abstract'. 3 We have only to think of Quetzalcoati's statue in the book, where he is represented as a naked man with an eagle on his outstretched arm and a serpent coiled around his leg, to recognize that this god is no horrific amalgam of bird and snake.4 He is a man, like Matthew, able to take the wings of the morning with the lark, and also to descend under the earth with the long snakes. In the terminology of The Plumed Serpent,
Appendix: 'Fire' and the Poems from 'The Plumed Serpent' 203
Matthew, like Quetzalcoatl, like any man fully a man, is a 'Lord of the Two Ways':
I am Quetzalcoatl of the eagle and the snake. The earth and air. Of the Morning Star. I am Lord of the Two Ways - (800)
The struggle of the revolutionaries in The Plumed Serpent is to bring about a new incarnation: not to make men into gods, but to bring gods into being again among men - 'God made man is the goal' - 5 just as in all Lawrence's moral and philosophical schemes the end in view has always been the bringing of the soul of the individual into being 'in the midst of life'. Except in so far as it provides men such as Don Ramon and Don Cipriano, or even a Kate Leslie, with a vocabulary in which to express this sense of their own being, the entire mythological structure is a cumbrous and extraneous piece of machinery. As rituals, chants, or sermons attempting the popular communication of religious mystery the 'hymns' are unsuccessful; the interest they have is as expressions of the personalities of Ramon and Cipriano. It is a question, in the end, not of these two becoming Aztec deities, but of Quetzalcoatl and Huitzilopochtli taking on the characteristics of the two men.
