The Shrine¹

There is no lord within my heart,Left silent as an empty shrineWhere rose and myrtle intertwine, Within a place apart.

No god is there of carven stoneTo watch with still approving eyesMy thoughts like steady incense² rise； I dream and weep alone.

But if I keep my altar fair,Some morning I shall lift my headFrom roses deftly³ garlanded To find the god is there.
