    “If you feed a man, and wash his clothes, and borne his children, you and that man are married, that man is yours. If you sweep a house, and tend its fires and fill its stoves, and there is love in you all the years you are doing this, then you and that house are married, that house is yours.”

    & cross the damp cold lawn & down the bluff
    into the terrible water & walk forever
    under it out toward the island.”
