-
Like eyes that looked on WastesB
Incredulous of OughtC
But Blank and steady WildernessD
Diversified by NightE
-
Just Infinites of NoughtE
As far as it could seeF
So looked the face I looked uponG
So looked itself on MeF
-
I offered it no HelpH
Because the Cause was MineI
The Misery a CompactE
As hopeless as divineI
-
Neither would be absolvedE
Neither would be a QueenJ
Without the Other ThereforeK
We perish tho' We reignL
