To the woman I do adore fully:

Green eyes shimmer upon every glancing

As gems from long forfeit reliquary

Ah! forth does my heart desire advancing

Whoa! For I am held ‘loft from mine epic charge

No small foe has raz’d this moment thus naught

With such cruelty my heart thusly scarred

Is this the home that I did blindly wrought

Asunder is my world and life without you

By my side—ever loving—Oh! I am lost!

I, such the incomprehensible fool

Can I undo all this? Terrible cost!

I am fill’d with such agonizing regret

But I cannot find means to e’er forget
