“The End Of It” by Francis Thompson 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (16 Dec 1859 – 13 Nov 1907)
She did not love to love; but hated him
For making her to love, and so her whim
From passion taught misprision to begin;
And all this sin
Was because love to cast out had no skill
Self, which was regent still.
Her own self-will made void her own self’s will
