Has time come? Iâ??m fully ready.
If weâ??ve sinned â?? thereâ??s no a chanceâ?¦
We â?? to prisons, they â?? to gladnessâ?¦
Give to children â?? sun and grass! ...
How dark and heavyâ??s the deliriumâ??s embrace!
How theyâ??re turbid under moon â?? the heights!
To have touched Violin for so many years
And not distinguish those Strings in light! ...
The gardens full of gold and decay,
With lure of purple of the swelling ailments,
And tardy heat of sun in curves of sunbeamâ??s remnants,
Unable to distil into the fragrant spray. ...
My eyes forgot the heavens- blue,
To them the sun-s dust is not gold,
But I live just one substance through,
That-s to the amethyst-s planes owned. ...

Faltered and men once bold with faces white
Turned this and that way in excuse to flee,
I only stood, and by the foeman's might
Was overborne and mangled cruelly.
