Here before low stars on the sky
Alone and lonely I remembered you.
When over infernal abyss of Vesuvius
Moon went down as silver holy host on the blue
I mused in bitterness, that miserable is life,
The Crater is the heart, and the soul is the Moon.
And when wimple from the crater blew the mourning,
I cried for you.
