Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CCDCCDI wake and feel the fell of dark not day | A |
What hours O what black hours we have spent | B |
This night what sights you heart saw ways you went | B |
And more must in yet longer light's delay | A |
With witness I speak this But where I say | A |

Selfyeast of spirit a dull dough sours I see | C |
The lost are like this and their scourge to be | C |
As I am mine their sweating selves but worse | D |
