Suits not the bridal hour;

A tiny shroud and gown of her own sewing

She gives thee at thy going.

Thy father brings a clod of earth, a somber

Pillow for thy last slumber.

And so a single casket, scant of measure,

Locks thee and all thy treasure.

Lament VIII

Thou hast made all the house an empty thing,

Dear Ursula, by this thy vanishing.
