Ever and never

```

Will you love me,

Lord, if I love Ignorance more?

I shall love you:

To you open my Spirit’s Door.

Will you love me,

Lord, if I marry the fires of Hell?

I shall love you.

Your life’s venom tree my Eye shall fell.

Will you love me,

Lord, if I live with wildest Death?

I shall love you.

In you I sowed my deathless Breath.

Will you love me,

Lord, if I come to you alone?

Never.

Bring quick

With you the world, else I shall moan.
