“The nightingales are singing near
The Convent of the Sacred Heart,
And sang within the bloody wood
When Agamemnon cried aloud,
And let their liquid siftings fall
To stain the stiff dishonored shroud.”

That are quick-eyed Pleasure’s foes!
We convent nought else but woes,
We convent nought else but woes.”
