I	A
Last night I saw you decked to meet	B
The coming of those most reluctant feet	B
The little bonnet that you wear	C
When you would fain for his sake be more fair	C
The primrose ribbons that so grace	D
The perfect pallor of your face	D
The dark gown folded back about the throat	E
And folds of lacework that denote	E
All that beneath them just beneath them lies	F
God for his eyes	F
	-
So the man came and took you and we lay	G
So near and yet so far away	G
You in his arms awake for joy and I	A
Awake for very misery	H
Cursing a sleepless brain that would but scrawl	I
Your image on the aching wall	I
That would but pang me with the sense	J
Of that most sweet accursed violence	K
Of lovers' hands that weary to caress	L
Those hands your unforbidden loveliness	L
	-
And with the dawn that vision came again	M
To an unrested and recurrent brain	N
To think your body warm and white	O
Lay in his arms all night	O
That it was given him to surprise	L
With those unhallowed eyes	L
The secrets of your beauty hid from me	H
That I may never may I never see	H
I who adore you he who finds in you	P
Poor child a half forgotten point of view	P
II	A
As I lay on the stranger's bed	Q
And clasped the stranger woman I had hired	R
Desiring only memory dead	Q
Of all that I had once desired	R
	-
It was then that I wholly knew	P
How dearly I had loved you my lost friend	S
While I am I and you are you	P
How I must love you to the end	S
	-
For I lay in her arms awake	T
Awake and cursing the indifferent night	O
That ebbed so slowly for your sake	T
My heart's desire my soul's delight	O
	-
For I lay in her arms awake	T
Awake in such a solitude of shame	U
That when I kissed her for your sake	T
My lips were sobbing on your name	U
