Poems (Mary Coleridge)/Poem 92

​
XCII
Depart from me. I know Thee not! Within the Temple have I sought Thee, And many a time have sold and bought TheeIn that unhallowed, holy spot.Depart from me. I know Thee not!
Depart from me. I know Thee not! Full oft among the poor I found Thee. There did I grieve, neglect, and wound Thee.I never strove to share Thy lot.Depart from me. I know Thee not!
I know Thee not. Abide with me! More than aught else do I admire Thee, Above all earthly things desire Thee.I am Thy prisoner. Make me free!I know Thee not. Abide with me!
