Did she complain unto the stars above,

All the lone night, of that forbidden love?

Or down the rush-strewn stairs, where arras old

Waved with her mantled passage, fold on fold,

Beyond the tower's iron-studded gate,

That snarled with rust, did she steal forth and wait

Deep in the dingled lavender and rose

For him, her troubadour?... Who knows? who knows?
