Chapter 21 No.21

'O sweet wife, I suffer sore-

O methinks aye more and more

Dull my day, my courage numb,

Shadows from the night to come.

But no counsel, hope, nor aid

Is to give; a crown being made

Power and rule, yea all good things

Yet to hang on this same weird

I must dree it, ever that brings

Chastening from the white-witch feared.
