Juliette

Let never lie within thy heart
what might to light thou bring
nor sting thy soul with poison dart
nor love nor any thing.

On shattered slabs of mortar
lay not thy death to find
when new love finds another
and thou art left behind.

Thy shame in all forsake now
for all will share thy shame
And never none so keenly
as lit and quenched thy flame.
