in gentle strains

in gentle strains.
+++++++++++

in gentle strains
sing low my sweet/
till my ears become
half-sane again.

my pretty says good
prayers discreet/

(and makes death a 
comedian.)

the world was never
mine to lend/but if it
was i'd give to thee/
true passion's balm to
touch, and mend/
for all eternity!

j.s.h.
