I Say I'll Seek Her

 I say, "I'll seek her side
     Ere hindrance interposes;"
     But eve in midnight closes,
    And here I still abide.

    When darkness wears I see
     Her sad eyes in a vision;
     They ask, "What indecision
    Detains you, Love, from me? -

    "The creaking hinge is oiled,
     I have unbarred the backway,
     But you tread not the trackway;
    And shall the thing be spoiled?

    "Far cockcrows echo shrill,
     The shadows are abating,
     And I am waiting, waiting;
    But O, you tarry still!"
