    Squats on a toad-stool under a tree
    A bodiless childfull of life in the gloom,

    Poor unborn ghost, for my mother killed me
    Scarcely alive in her wicked womb.

    Young soul put off your flesh, and come
    With me into the quiet tomb,
    Our bed is lovely, dark, and sweet;
    The earth will swing us, as she goes,
    Beneath our coverlid of snows,
    —Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803–1849)

    Of love and all its smart,
    Then die, dear, die;
