FRAGMENT: 'MY HEAD IS WILD WITH WEEPING'
[Published by W. M. Rossetti, 1870.]
My head is wild with weeping for a grief
Which is the shadow of a gentle mind.
I walk into the air (but no relief
To seek,—or haply, if I sought, to find;[1]
It came unsought);—to wonder that a chief
Among men's spirits should be cold and blind.
