“So now it is vain for the singer to burst into clamor
With the great black piano appassionato. The glamour
Of childish days is upon me, my manhood is cast
Down in the flood of remembrance, I weep like a child for the past.”

who had one body and one heart.
And death who had the soldier singled
has done the lover mortal hurt.”
