The die rang sideways as it fell, Rang cracked and thin, Like a man's laughter heard in hell Far down, Faustine A shadow of laughter like a sigh, Dead sorrow's kin $ So rang, thrown down, the devil's die That won Faustine.
A suckling of his breed you were, One hard to wean ; But God, who lost you, left you fair, We see, Faustine.
120 FAUST INE.
You have the face that suits a woman For her soul's screen — The sort of beauty that 's called human In hell, Faustine.
You could do all things but be g
...ood Or chaste of mien ; And that you would not if you could, We know, Faustine.
Even he who cast seven devils out Of Magdalene Could hardly do as much, I doubt, For you, Faustine.
Did Satan make you to spite God ?
Or did God mean To scourge with scorpions for a rod Our sins, Faustine ?
I know what queen at first you. were, As though I had seen Red gold and black imperious hair Twice crown Faustine.
As if your fed sarcophagus- Spared flesh and skin, You come back face to face with us, The same Faustine.
