“That’s how I live, that’s how I die: in doubt.
One calls me back, the other kicks me out;

“At our parting, pain and rage choked my goodbyes:
I couldn’t say the word to those fine eyes
That, near, far, captivate me utterly;

Copses and forests, riverbanks and fountains,
Caves, fields, flowers – say goodbye to her for me.”
