<poem>
Lighthearted I walked into the
valley wood
In the time of hyacinths,
Till beauty like a scented cloth Cast over, stifled me. I was bound Motionless and faint of breath By loveliness that is her own eunuch.
Now pass I the final river Ignominiously, in a sack, without a sound, As any peeping Turk to the Bosphorous.
