Who is the poet of the following stanza?
"Those horns, the envy of the moon,
Now, targeting the sun, have set:
The eyes are cinders of regret . . . " if more context needed, please let me know... regards

That's the opening of Roy Campbell's poem 'Death of the Bull', which you'll find in his book Mithraic Emblems (1936).
