Thine Absence

Grief for this naughty Fellings,

Seasoning my heart, my meanings,

Looking up to the Fatal Edgings,

From my life, my thoughts, Perjurings.

Lengthning my herm it try,

That makes me so down, so Adry,

Otherwise waves and winds Quantify,

My tears, Thine voice, Thine touch, Thine presence into mine.

Graving thine eyes in my shadow

Thou art my waves, my griefing fellings, callow,

My admonished heart is gloomy now,

`Cause agony has replaced love,

And it is Thou.
