I pray It to hide me for ever away from His face.

V

All things are outworn now—grief is dead,

And passion has fallen from me like a withered leaf.

Little it were to me now though Curithir were beside me:

Though he should pass I would not turn my head.

My heart is like a stone in my body.

All I have grasped I loose again from my hands.
