The gilt lime of winter, a sun grown melancholy old,
Streams in the glass. Outside, ten thousand chimneys fume,
Looping the weather-birds with rings of gold;

For me Diana's awful doom let fall;
And I be cursed with curious Actæon,
Save that you find in me this strong defence

My pilgrimages last mile; and my race

Dying? I am not dying. Are you mad?
You think I need to ask for heavenly grace?
\I\ think \you\ are a fiend, who would be glad
To see me struggle in death's cold embrace.
Heartsease
