Quietous* tree, That hath sought Found to bleed And from torment wrought, Thou dost despondent stand And thy veins doth shed And bury in desolate land The tears that thou hast bled. Thine heart's own verisimilitude Beats within thy stiff breast And all thee hath eschewed And thy plot avoid lest Thy count'nance rear'd And thy misery form'd Within all whom thee fear'd And their joy harm'd. Quietous* tree, Son of agony's lot, From the pain within thee, What horror hast thou begot?

Bleeding Tree
Quietous* tree, That hath sought Found to bleed And from torment wrought, Thou dost despondent stand And thy veins doth shed And bury in desolate land The tears that thou hast bled. Thine heart's own verisimilitude Beats within thy stiff breast And all thee hath eschewed And thy plot avoid lest Thy count'nance rear'd And thy misery form'd Within all whom thee fear'd And their joy harm'd. Quietous* tree, Son of agony's lot, From the pain within thee, What horror hast thou begot?
*Quiet + ous, not to be confused with quietus
