CHAPTER IV
⊶⊰ ⊱⊷
The life I have ought to care
But with fears I scarcely bare
To step out, I did not dare
Doubting me, I've done me fareThe face I look, tongue I spoke;
Lips are sealed, but brain awoke
Anguished limbs behind some cloak;
These-shall hide behind the oakA gyre of grief, shan't be seen
Never strong, after what had been
To their talks I've been so keen
Castaway — the dire I've beenFears I loath, granted valor
Lammergeiers who're of vigor
Can't trade me any favor
Favor to hide behind doors.⊶⊰ ⊱⊷
