We dryly sweat when she with maiden tongue Rebukes with haste the wicked ways of men For all do writhe and feel most tort'rous stung When from calm lips eschew our mortal sins Are we not well equipped to follow rules? When now the forms of long ago return And look to us who do not come as fools For time and heart require no subtle burn But ne'er was one brought down too far from grace To cry from fear alone with need to flee For deepest cuts spur us to upward race And that which does not **** will make us free When deep within our souls we still believe That curse of hope is still our best reprieve

Sonnet
We dryly sweat when she with maiden tongue Rebukes with haste the wicked ways of men For all do writhe and feel most tort'rous stung When from calm lips eschew our mortal sins Are we not well equipped to follow rules? When now the forms of long ago return And look to us who do not come as fools For time and heart require no subtle burn But ne'er was one brought down too far from grace To cry from fear alone with need to flee For deepest cuts spur us to upward race And that which does not **** will make us free When deep within our souls we still believe That curse of hope is still our best reprieve
