A
-
They put Us far apartB
As separate as SeaC
And Her unsown PeninsulaD
We signified These seeC
-
They took away our EyesE
They thwarted Us with GunsF
I see Thee each responded straightG
Through Telegraphic SignsH
-
With Dungeons They devisedI
But through their thickest skillJ
And their opaquest AdamantK
Our Souls saw just as wellL
-
They summoned Us to dieM
With sweet alacrityC
We stood upon our stapled feetN
Condemned but just to seeC
-
Permission to recantO
Permission to forgetP
We turned our backs upon the SunQ
For perjury of thatR
-
Not Either noticed DeathS
Of Paradise awareT
Each other's Face was all the DiscU
Each other's setting sawV
