Remembrance from my eyes for they have seen | B |
Aye an hour ago my brilliant Queen | B |
Touch has a memory O say love say | A |
What can I do to kill it and be free | C |
In my old liberty | C |
When every fair one that I saw was fair | D |
Enough to catch me in but half a snare | D |
Not keep me there | D |
When howe'er poor or particolour'd things | E |
My muse had wings | E |
And ever ready was to take her course | F |
Whither I bent her force | F |
Unintellectual yet divine to me | C |
Divine I say What sea bird o'er the sea | C |
Is a philosopher the while he goes | G |
Winging along where the great water throes | G |
- | |
How shall I do | H |
To get anew | H |
Those moulted feathers and so mount once more | I |
Above above | J |
The reach of fluttering Love | J |
And make him cower lowly while I soar | I |
Shall I gulp wine No that is vulgarism | C |
A heresy and schism | C |
Foisted into the canon law of love | J |
No wine is only sweet to happy men | K |
More dismal cares | L |
Seize on me unawares | L |
Where shall I learn to get my peace again | K |
To banish thoughts of that most hateful land | M |
Dungeoner of my friends that wicked strand | M |
Where they were wreck'd and live a wrecked life | N |
That monstrous region whose dull rivers pour | I |
Ever from their sordid urns unto the shore | I |
Unown'd of any weedy haired gods | O |
Whose winds all zephyrless hold scourging rods | O |
Iced in the great lakes to afflict mankind | P |
Whose rank grown forests frosted black and blind | P |
Would fright a Dryad whose harsh herbag'd meads | Q |
Make lean and lank the starv'd ox while he feeds | Q |
There flowers have no scent birds no sweet song | R |
And great unerring Nature once seems wrong | R |
- | |
O for some sunny spell | S |
To dissipate the shadows of this hell | S |
Say they are gone with the new dawning light | T |
Steps forth my lady bright | T |
O let me once more rest | U |
My soul upon that dazzling breast | U |
Let once again these aching arms be plac'd | V |
The tender gaolers of thy waist | V |
And let me feel that warm breath here and there | D |
To spread a rapture in my very hair | D |
O the sweetness of the pain | W |
Give me those lips again | K |
Enough Enough it is enough for me | C |
To dream of thee | C |
