Enochian Calling

Then hate me when thou wilt; if ever, now;

Now, while the world is bent my deeds to cross

Join with the spite of fortune, make me bow

And do not drop in for an after-loss:

Ah! do not, when my heart hath 'scaped this sorrow

Come in the rearward of a conquered woe;

Give not a windy night a rainy morrow

To linger out a purposed overthrow

If thou wilt leave me, do not leave me last

When other petty griefs have done their spite

But in the onset come: so shall I taste

At first the very worst of fortune's might;

And other strains of woe, which now seem woe

Compared with loss of thee, will not seem so
