For the statue of Lorenzetti in the Venice Exhibition representing a chained and recumbent figure larger than life who if she broke the silence of her misery might speak thus | B |
Ye that pass by come near and look on me | C |
I am despised rejected and out thrust | D |
My garments are acquainted with the dust | D |
My soul is bosom mate of misery | C |
- | |
Come near and look upon me sons of men | E |
Would I were dead yea peace is with the dead | F |
The dead are happy having no desire | G |
I rise and fall and rise and fall again | E |
Something is in me famishing for bread | F |
Baffled and unappeasable as fire | G |
Woe woe is me I tire and may not tire | G |
Eternal strength in weariness is mine | H |
Raise me I call Come nearer I am thine | H |
What Knowest thou not thy sister I am she | C |
