Like thief she stole across the

Somehow, blindly, she stumbled out

by thought whose temptation was
stronger than her powers of resist

Judiths problem. None, she told
herself, bitterly, would seek to binder

matter that none should see or sus.

Round the shoulder of the noun

And yet, such is the inconsistency
of the human animal, the instinct for

Behind her Seneca Urine sat. an.

There was no occupant of the room.
Though he had lain nearly two
days in coma, her fathers subsequent
progress toward recovery of his nor
