Still pouring thro', floods with redundant light

Her narrow portals.

Trust me, long ago

I should have died, if it were possible

To die in gazing on that perfectness

Which I do bear within me; I had died

But from my farthest lapse, my latest ebb,

Thine image, like a charm of light and strength

Upon the waters, pushed me back again

On these deserted sands of barren life.
