The last oozing hours, O my un-controlled emotions!
Ye crashing my roses, my divine pulses,
I am nothing, besides my breathe
How drought, how frail, O aching time!
I found no comfort, neither any hoary place
Whereupon I lay my burden and lechery;
Or to thrown my real self into eternal side,
Fairer then breathe, brightest then faded hierarchy.
Thy heart pipe flutes O happy happy hours
I Murmur teeming, fluttering, and dreaming:
Ay, thy heart burst my grasping joys,
And lo! Tent to poison, she left me in songs of spring.
Loitering alone with my primitive pain,
When over I saw her starved lips in gloam.
