O my sister remember the stars the tears the trains
The woods in spring the leaves the scented lanes
Recall the gradual dark the snow's unmeasured fall
The naked fields the cloud's immaculate folds...
Walk boldly my sister but do not deign to give
Remain secure from pain preserve thy hate thy heart.
