A poem by Edward II was proposed to Delia to set to music for Poets in Prison.
Poem text
Translated by Edward Lucie-Smith.
On my devoted head Her bitterest showers, All from a wintry cloud, Stern fortune pours. View but her favourite, Sage and discerning, Grac'd with fair comeliness, Fam'd for is learning; Should she withdraw her smile, Each grace she banishes, Wisdom and wit are flown, And beauty vanishes.
