It is enough of honor for one lifetime / To have known you better than the rest have known, / The shadows and the colors of your voice, / Your will, immutable and still as stone.
The shy heart, so lonely and so gay, / The sad laughter and the pride of pride, / The tenderness, the depth of tenderness / Rich as the earth, and wide as heaven is wide.
