Dark house, by which once more I stand
Here in the long unlovely street,
Doors, where my heart was used to beat
So quickly, waiting for a hand,
A hand that can be clasp'd no more
Behold me, for I cannot sleep,
And like a guilty thing I creep (7)

The noise of life begins again,
And ghastly thro' the drizzling rain
On the bald street breaks the blank day. (12)
