The god of love preparing to depart.

Alexandra hoisted on his shoulder

They slip between the sentries of the heart.

Upheld by the simplicities of pleasure

And radiant beyond your widest measure

Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.

Whose code was broken, crucifix uncrossed

Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.

Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost.
