Reduce to primal hyle perchance—
I shall not do it in advance !
So let the accidental fact
That these are women, fall away
To black oblivion: be the pact
Concluded firm enough to-day,
Not thus to err. So you are not
In essence or in function one
With these, the unpardonable blot
On knighthood’s shield, the sombre spot
Seen on the photosphere of sun.
