<p class="poetry">Regret with streaming eyes doth seem alway<br/>
A maiden widowed on her wedding day.</p>
<p class="poetry">While dark Remorse, with eyes too sad for
tears,<br/>
A crushed, desponding Magdalene appears.</p>
<p class="poetry">One, with a hungering heart unsatisfied,<br/>
Mourns for imagined joys that were denied.</p>
<p class="poetry">The other, pierced by recollected sin,<br/>
Broods o’er the scars of pleasures that have been.</p>
