Transcription

From A.E. Housman
"From far, from eve and morning, and you twelve wind ed sky, the stuff of life to [unintelligible] + me blew hither. Here am I. Now for a while I tarry, nor yet disperse a part. Come. Take my hand and tell me. What have you in your heart. Speak now and I will answer. How can I help you say, 'ere to the winds twelve quarters I take my endless way."
"oh when I was in love with you, then I was clan and brave, and miles around the wonder grew, how well I did behave. And now the fancy passes..."
For me, nothing has passed. King's X + you being with me there - and your letters, are a part of my very being, and have never diminished. Flowers, + music, and love and joy.
