I

Part of Insufficiency

THERE is no one beside thee, and no one above

            thee;

      Thou standest alone, as the nightingale sings!

      Yet my words that would praise thee, are impotent things,

For none can express thee, though all should approve thee!

I love thee so, Dear, that I only can love thee.
