Recognized wrong? You righted me, I think?

Well then,—what if I, at this last of all,

Demonstrate you, as my whole pleading proves,

No particle of wrong received thereby

One atom of right?—that cure grew worse disease?

That in the process you call "justice done"

All along you have nipped away just inch

By inch the creeping climbing length of plague

Breaking my tree of life from root to branch,

And left me, after all and every act
