To sink the past beneath our feet, be sure

The future would not stand. Precipitate

This old roof from the shrine, and, insecure,

The nesting swallows fly off, mate from mate.

How scant the gardens, if the graves were fewer!

The tall green poplars grew no longer straight

Whose tops not looked to Troy. Would any fight

Some angel of the martyrs all day long

Standing and waiting? Your last rhythm will need
