I could suffice for Him, I knew---
He---could suffice for Me---
Yet Hesitating Fractions---Both
+Surveyed Infinity---
---
"Would I be Whole" He sudden broached---
My syllable rebelled---
'Twas face to face with Nature---forced---
'Twas face to face with God---

Withdrew the Sun---to Other Wests---
Withdrew the furthest Star
Before Decision---stooped to speech---
And then---be audibler
---
The Answer of the Sea unto
The Motion of the Moon---
Herself adjust Her Tides---unto---
Could I---do else---with Mine?
