Tho' I get home how late — how late —

| ←The Flower must not blame the Bee — (206) | Tho' I get home how late — how late — by 207 |
(208) The Rose did caper on her cheek —→ |
Tho' I get home how late — how late —
So I get home - 'twill compensate —
Better will be the Ecstasy
That they have done expecting me —
When Night — descending — dumb — and dark —
They hear my unexpected knock —
Transporting must the moment be —
Brewed from decades of Agony!
To think just how the fire will burn —
Just how long-cheated eyes will turn —
To wonder what myself will say,
And what itself, will say to me —
Beguiles the Centuries of way!
