The light of evening LissadellA
Great windows open to the southB
Two girls in silk kimonos bothC
Beautiful one a gazelleA
But a raving autumn shearsD
Blossom from the summer's wreathE
The older is condemned to deathF
Pardoned drags out lonely yearsG
Conspiring among the ignorantH
I know not what the younger dreamsI
Some vague Utopia and she seemsI
When withered old and skeleton gauntJ
An image of such politicsK
Many a time I think to seekL
One or the other out and speakL
Of that old Georgian mansion mixK
pictures of the mind recallA
That table and the talk of youthM
Two girls in silk kimonos bothC
Beautiful one a gazelleA
-
Dear shadows now you know it allA
All the folly of a fightN
With a common wrong or rightN
The innocent and the beautifulA
Have no enemy but timeO
Arise and bid me strike a matchP
And strike another till time catchP
Should the conflagration climbO
Run till all the sages knowQ
We the great gazebo builtR
They convicted us of guiltR
Bid me strike a match and blowQ
