| 11 | Tonight, as I look up, the stars \ | ||
| 12 | hide themselves in shame. [There is no moon][]. \ | ||
| 13 | The sky is black, like my desk, | ||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | [nothing like a raven][]. The streetlights \ | ||
| 16 | look on the scene disinterested. \ | ||
| 17 | They have their own [small gossips of the dark][]. | ||

| 19 | I came here to find the Lion, old \ | ||
| 20 | friend, but he will not show his flanks, his \ | ||
| 21 | paws, his shoulders, [his mane][]. I | ||
| 22 | |||
| 23 | can hear him laughing from his hiding-place \ | ||
| 24 | behind the moon, nonexistent, under \ | ||
| 25 | the cold dead earth. The mountain is in front | ||
| 26 | |||
| 27 | of me now, a hole of stars daring me \ | ||
| 28 | to pierce it with my sight. The lion's still \ | ||
| 29 | laughing; the streetlamps talk about | ||
| 30 | |||
| 31 | me amongst themselves, and go out. There \ | ||
| 32 | never was any lion, they tell me. \ | ||
| 33 | [You only hear the wind][] [on the mountain][]. | ||
