I yearn with the weariness of my life, laid waste and lost in the woods the
zephyr sways.

I yearn with the dreariness of my undirected days in the tufted forest's shade.

There to groan in my happiness, there I feel that I am lost. All is tuned to my
weariness.

I say it. Joy doth brood for me in the tufted wood that by no path is crossed.
