he gave to her
Yet tenfold claim'd in return -
She hath no life but the one he for her wrought;
Proffer'd to her his wauking heart - she turn'd it down
Riposted with a tell-tale lore of lies and scorn
Prophetess or fond?
Tho' her parle of truth
I ken to-morrow - refell me if ye can!
Yet the kiss and breath - apollo's bane -
Sėer of the future
Not of twain
Sicker!
Quoth cassandra
Still
Is she lief and quaint in his eyne
A sight divine? -
A mistress fuell'd by his prest haughtiness -
If he did grant
Wherefore then did he not foresee
Belike egal as it to him might be?!
Prophetess or fond?
Tho' her parle of truth
I ken to-morrow - refell me if ye can!
Yet the kiss and breath - apollo's bane -
Sėer of the future
Not of twain
Sicker!
Quoth cassandra
'or was he an eried being
'or was he weening - alack nay mo;
Her naysay' raught his heart
Her daffing was the grave of all hope -
She belied her own words
He thought her life
Save moreo'er scourge
She held him august
Yet wee;
He left her ne'er without his heart
