| - | |
| And wilt thou have me fashion into speech | B |
| The love I bear thee finding words enough | C |
| And hold the torch out while the winds are rough | C |
| Between our faces to cast light on each | B |
| I drop it at thy feet I cannot teach | B |
| My hand to hold my spirit so far off | D |
| From myself me that I should bring thee proof | E |
| In words of love hid in me out of reach | B |
| Nay let the silence of my womanhood | F |
| Commend my woman love to thy belief | G |
| Seeing that I stand unwon however wooed | H |
| And rend the garment of my life in brief | G |
| By a most dauntless voiceless fortitude | H |
| Lest one touch of this heart convey its grief | G |
