 AH yes, I know you well, a sojourner1
         At the hearth2;
     I know right well the marriage ring you wear,
         And what it's worth.
 
     The angels came to Abraham, and they stayed
         In his house awhile;
     So you to mine, I imagine; yes, happily
         Condescend to be vile3.
 
     I see you all the time, you bird-blithe4, lovely
         Angel in disguise.
     I see right well how I ought to be grateful,
         Smitten with reverent5 surprise.
 
     Listen, I have no use
         For so rare a visit;
     Mine is a common devil's
         Requisite.
 
     Rise up and go, I have no use for you
         And your blithe, glad mien6.
     No angels here, for me no goddesses,
         Nor any Queen.
 
     Put ashes on your head, put sackcloth on
         And learn to serve.
     You have fed me with your sweetness, now I am sick,
         As I deserve.
 
     Queens, ladies, angels, women rare,
         I have had enough.
     Put sackcloth on, be crowned with powdery ash,
         Be common stuff.
 
     And serve now woman, serve, as a woman should,
         Implicitly.
