Have you looked for me everywhere in this blighted land-

And yet found me not? Alas- then you have roamed

This day, as are the rivers; stirring in the branches

Are the birds, even the seas roll in disquiet.

The time is here, my friend, and yet you know not my

Address! Why, my friend, why do you blunder so?
