He says, after I reproached him when he visited me
He says, and I had reproached him when he visited me
for turning away: “Spare me talk of my earlier sins,
For being aloof: “Leave my early sins be.”

and break open the night’s ‘seeing one’ with reunion, and let
So unveil the vision of union in the dark night,
the time for reproach pass in letters.”
And leave behind the time of reproach to pass through messages.
