Explore "Seven Seals" by D.H. Lawrence on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
SINCE this is the last night I keep you home, / Come, I will consecrate you for the journey.
Rather I had you would not go. Nay come, / I will not again reproach you. Lie back / And let me love you a long time ere you go. / For you are sullen-hearted still, and lack / The will to love me. But even so / I will set a seal upon you from my lip, / Will set a guard of honour at each door, / Seal up each channel out of which might slip / Your love for me.
