The stones whereat, in vision, I see, The courting cries of cicadas, Are scorns, and all thy noise, trifled from astray of honesty. Thine eyes, a testament of beauty That dilapidate upon O'! Stars! thy's hissing word Like Odysseus' deadly deceit. Thy heart, once purest gold Untainted by the world Hath become stained To mark, a smudge, a scar. To --- I know not of worth and value Nor can I hold my place in your world. That honesty and truth is surrendered In the wakes of a single lie. I applaud those who never lead astray But you my dear, have stained my conscience Of love and trust
