he abjures love - gerald finzi lyrics
at last i put off love
for twice ten years
the daysman of my thought
and hope, and doing;
being ashamed thereof
and faint of fears
and desolations, wrought
in his pursuing
since first in youthtime those
disquietings
that heart*enslavement brings
to hale and h**ry
became my housefellows
and, fool and blind
i turned from kith and kind
to give him glory
i was as children be
who have no care;
i did not shrink or sigh
i did not sicken;
but lo, love beckoned me
and i was bare
and poor, and starved, and dry
and fever*stricken
too many times ablazе
with fatuous fires
enkindled by his wiles
to nеw embraces
did i, by wilful ways
and baseless ires
return the anxious smiles
of friendly faces
no more will now rate i
the common rare
the midnight drizzle dew
the gray hour golden
the wind a yearning cry
the faulty fair
things dreamt, of comelier hue
than things beholden!…
* i speak as one who plumbs
life’s dim profound
one who at length can sound
clear views and certain
but * after love what comes?
a scene that lours
a few sad vacant hours
and then, the curtain
