The grief that lies bleeding in me  No less in pity than in glory  O creatures that are dearest to me...  ...put on your crowns    I look into the sky and dream of oceans that are vast  O go to them, it is the vow of mine...  ...danger lies ahead    With you my sensual queen of natural conception  That your hands find the eiderdown hard  Body of heavenly picture and flower  It is you that holds the secret to all our worlds    Of all your pleasures, beauty, that I taste  So true in bondage that I fresh the mind  O free my lungs that others of thought forbid  My soul has but ached,  But still I am all that's left of you    Sit my lover, upon your throne  If chains are of words, my heart is worn  O shall the voices be as pleasing as forever  And forever naked I stand amongst you    The grief that lies bleeding in me  No less in pity than in glory  O creatures that are dearest to me...  ...I search in doubt    Honour, honour that I feel  I am no more worthy that I am human  Let your tongue lesh me...  ...and rain, yes it shall rain    I am yours forever
