“Come, fix upon me that accusing eye.
I thirst for accusation. All that was sung.
All that was said in Ireland is a lie
Breed out of the contagion of the throng,
Saving the rhyme rats hear before they die.”

“Behind the glass, under the cellophane,
Remains your final summer sweet
And meaningless, and not to come again.”
