You in the flesh and here	A
Your very self Now wait	B
One word May I hope or fear	C
Must I speak in love or hate	B
Stay while I ruminate	B
	-
The fact and each circumstance	D
Dare you disown Not you	E
That vast dome that huge dance	D
And the gloom which overgrew	C
A possibly festive crew	C
	-
For why should men dance at all	F
Why women a crowd of both	G
Unless they are gay Strange ball	F
Hands and feet plighting troth	G
Yet partners enforced and loth	H
	-
Of who danced there no shape	I
Did I recognize thwart perverse	J
Each grasped each past escape	I
In a whirl or weary or worse	J
Man's sneer met woman's curse	J
	-
While he and she toiled as if	K
Their guardian set galley slaves	L
To supple chained limbs grown stiff	K
Unmanacled trulls and knaves	L
The lash for who misbehaves	L
	-
And a gloom was all the while	M
Deeper and deeper yet	N
O'ergrowing the rank and file	M
Of that army of haters set	N
To mimic love's fever fret	N
	-
By the wall side close I crept	O
Avoiding the livid maze	P
And safely so far outstepped	O
On a chamber a chapel says	Q
My memory or betrays	P
	-
Closet like kept aloof	R
From unseemly witnessing	S
What sport made floor and roof	R
Of the Devil's palace ring	S
While his Damned amused their king	S
	-
Ay for a low lamp burned	O
And a silence lay about	O
What I in the midst discerned	O
Though dimly till past doubt	O
'Twas a sort of throne stood out	O
	-
High seat with steps at least	O
And the topmost step was filled	O
By whom What vestured priest	O
A stranger to me his guild	O
His cult unreconciled	O
	-
To my knowledge how guild and cult	O
Are clothed in this world of ours	T
I pondered but no result	O
Came to unless that Giaours	T
So worship the Lower Powers	T
	-
When suddenly who entered	O
Who knelt did you guess I saw	T
Who raising that face were centred	O
Allegiance to love and law	T
So lately off casting awe	U
	-
Down treading reserve away	V
Thrusting respect but mine	W
Stands firm firm still shall stay	V
Ask Satan for I decline	W
To tell what I saw in fine	W
	-
Yet here in the flesh you come	X
Your same self form and face	T
In the eyes mirth still at home	Y
On the lips that commonplace	T
Perfection of honest grace	T
	-
Yet your errand is needs must be	Z
To palliate well explain	A2
Expurgate in some degree	Z
Your soul of its ugly stain	A2
Oh you the good in grain	A2
	-
How was it your white took tinge	B2
A mere dream never object	O
Sleep leaves a door on hinge	B2
Whence soul ere our flesh suspect	O
Is off and away detect	O
	-
Her vagaries when loose who can	C2
Be she pranksome be she prude	O
Disguise with the day began	C2
With the night ah what ensued	O
From draughts of a drink hell brewed	O
	-
Then She What a queer wild dream	D2
And perhaps the best fun is	T
Myself had its fellow I seem	D2
Scarce awake from yet 'Twas this	T
Shall I tell you First a kiss	T
	-
For the fault was just your own	E2
'Tis myself expect apology	Z
You warned me to let alone	E2
Since our studies were mere philology	Z
That ticklish you said Anthology	Z
	-
So I dreamed that I passed exam	F2
Till a question posed me sore	C
'Who translated this epigram	F2
By an author we best ignore '	-
And I answered 'Hannah More'	C
