"sanctuary"
In thou forest a rose,
picked from thy vine in virtue,
`twas a path intertwined sway,
doth thine eyes thou velvet.
So sought thou in crimson,
held thine effort succulent,
strident to the world thy heart,
fallen recoup stagger.
Thou solace request solved,
thyself second thou technique,
held proposition strife,
requisite to thine eyes.
Spare thy sultry emotion,
drench thou thirst herin knowledge,
of thou crows sanctuary seal,
epithalamium.
