Walls of my prison, which no longer seem

The agony they did, even though the cell

Is the hard penalty and the cursed extreme

Hate in return for love. But oh you hell,

You boundless earth to wander in and brood—

Great prison house of grief in which to dwell,

Remembering love forgotten, pride subdued,

And love desired and found and lost again.

That is the prison which no fortitude

Can suffer, and the never dying pain
