These people have not heard your name;
No loungers in this placid place
Have helped to bruit your beauty's fame.

 

The grey Cathedral, towards whose face
Bend eyes untold, has met not yours;
Your shade has never swept its base,

 

Your form has never darked its doors,
Nor have your faultless feet once thrown
A pensive pit-pat on its floors.

 

Along the streets to maids well known
Blithe lovers hum their tender airs,
But in your praise voice not a tone....

 

--Since nought bespeaks you here, or bears,
As I, your imprint through and through,
Here might I rest, till my heart shares
The spot's unconsciousness of you!
