1 make the night My cover, I know your touch a dreaded thing; I go to sombre woods to sing; Where you are not is such a sick distress That I must sing a lover's loneliness! But if my songs shall lead you where I hide, Then have I silence, now so long denied. 95 SLAVE OF THE FIRE I AM weary of my service to the blood of a king, For my people were farmers out of the West, I would be wife to this yeoman of whom my heart sings, In his strong love, I would take my rest. O! That I might raise a man t...o my kind, Shelter him in my womb, and feed him with my mind. THE SUPREME COURTESY MY man is like a good steel blade, As subtle, strong, and finely made, His power blue-white As steely light. O, he is cruel-quick enough! But to my touch, as pleasant as fine stuff, And from a wound of him I'd die, Happy at such keen mastery. THE FAREWELL TO-NIGHT For the last time, I loose my hair to make a tent about you. Come, lay your head on my knees. Your eyes are the lights of a town, And my body is a sheltering hill.
