“Dark Angel, with thine aching lust
To rid the world of penitence:
Malicious Angel, who still dost
My soul such subtile violence!

Because of thee, no thought, no thing,
Abides for me undesecrate:
Dark Angel, ever on the wing,
Who never reachest me too late!”
—Lionel Pigot Johnson (1867–1902)

“They know time comes, not only you and I,
But the whose world shall whiten, here or there;”
