Oscar Wilde - San Miniato
Work rating: Medium

.              SEE, I have climbed the mountain side
                Up to this holy house of God,
                Where once that Angel-Painter trod
              Who saw the heavens opened wide,

                And throned upon the crescent moon
                The Virginal white Queen of Grace,—
                Mary! could I but see thy face
              Death could not come at all too soon.

                O crowned by God with thorns and pain!
                Mother of Christ! O mystic wife!                      


                My heart is weary of this life
              And over-sad to sing again.

                O crowned by God with love and flame!
                O crowned by Christ the Holy One!
                O listen ere the searching sun
              Show to the world my sin and shame.
