Goes where it fancies. I had even thought

I knew your voice and face, but now the words

Are so unlikely that I needs must ask

Who is it that bids me put my hunger by?

Senias.

I am your oldest pupil, Seanchan;

The one that has been with you many years,

So many that you said at Candlemas

That I had almost done with school, and knew

All but all that poets understand.
