I.

I see thy house, but I am blown about,

  A wind-mocked kite, between the earth and sky, All out of doors--alas! of thy doors out,

  And drenched in dews no summer suns can dry.

For every blast is passion of my own;

  The dews cold sweats of selfish agony; Dank vapour steams from memories lying prone;

  And all my soul is but a stifled cry.
