When the sweet wind did gently kiss the trees,
And they did make no noise, in such a night

And sighed his soul toward the Grecian tents,
Where Cressid lay that night.”

Of shade and shadowy desire
And saw the dusk assail the wall,
The black surge, mounting, crash the stone!
Companion of this lust, we fall,
I said lest we should die alone.”

who loves men, who passes on
her sons to other women;
The cloud across the sky. The windy pines.
the trickle gurgle in the swampy meadow
