For you who loved me too

As the mistress of transparent towns that showed

Like sea-beasts the embodied ruins

As their bones, it is I who loved you

And crossed the sea, the flawed air

Allayed, now feel beneath my fingers

The seal melt from the fountain,

And recall the lost palatinate.

And for you whose it was

Who can forgive me? what may I offer? as

On this the other shore, unless

A dream rehearses loss,

Air of its charity will flush, the thin moon

From the white kernel of her filmy almond

Leans, and a causeless radiance fills

The palm I dip among these hills.
