Album Late Lyrics and Earlier, With Many Other Verses

Without, not within her by Thomas Hardy

Performed by
Thomas Hardy

Without, not within her Annotated

It was what you bore with you, Woman,
&nbsp Not inly were,
That throned you from all else human,
&nbsp However fair!

It was that strange freshness you carried
&nbsp Into a soul
Whereon no thought of yours tarried
&nbsp Two moments at all.

And out from his spirit flew death,
&nbsp And bale, and ban,
Like the corn-chaff under the breath
&nbsp Of the winnowing-fan.
