Stay, you, imperfect speaker, stay fast!
Tell me why this strange world, I pray,
Has fallen gray upon my way,
Name that yonder sphere I trust!
This uncouth intelligence, these clues.
On this blasted earth I dwell in
You halt my right to light thin.
Say, you, imperfect speaker, do,
Stand you where I entrust you.
Speak forth, I pray thee, now,
I deemed your truths, you would endow.
In thee, I did hold faith, O fiend,
And yet you ate me unredeemed.
Thou hast betrayed me at last.
Leave me alone, depart, wretched ghast!
