LXIX

 You were in the centre of my heart, therefore when my heart wandered she never found you; you hid yourself from my loves and hopes till the last, for you were always in them.

 

You were the inmost joy in the play of my youth, and when I was too busy with the play the joy was passed by.

 

You sang to me in the ecstasies¹ of my life and I forgot to sing to you.
