| Was disgust | B |
| And dissatisfaction | C |
| My baldric only contained | D |
| Broken pieces of my heart | E |
| and nothing could | F |
| Assuage my besotted anger | G |
| My buckler shielded me not | H |
| of this terrific tragedy | I |
| And straight to my chest | J |
| Bare in its comely gaze | K |
| The arrow struck | L |
| - | |
| Cravenly I cried | M |
| Only to fill a jar of emptiness | N |
| To brook a cataract of isolation | C |
| Loneliness And misery | I |
| - | |
| To move on was a song | O |
| A melancholy and a Durstn't | M |
| For nothing was left to gather | G |
| Together calmly | I |
| My unrepairable pieces | P |
| For this baldric held the weight | M |
| Of a lifetime | Q |
| And inestimable loneliness | N |
| - | |
| I sung not a song | O |
| A period of days | K |

| Of the darkness | N |
| The coldness in the hot winter | G |
| Only made me warmer | G |
| And the warm winds in the cold summer | G |
| Only blew pain in my esteem | S |

| In an eyot I was fettered | M |
| By the strength of misfortune | C |
| And flanked to my enemy | I |
| Fate which I had to face | T |
| Flummoxed and grieved | M |
| I could stand no more | G |
| For that which I called a companion | C |
| My heart forlorn | U |
| - | |
| These pieces gainsay my eyes | V |
| And this guileful rage | W |
| Contradicts my hither smiles | X |
| - | |
| Go away flee from me | I |
| These words cannot come | Y |
| And my voice will not vibrate | M |
| To echo them out | M |
| And this | Z |
| Passionate slavery to my soul | A2 |
