SACRIFICE, by                    
First Line: Accept the sacrifice I made
Last Line: And how I never was content?


Accept the sacrifice I made
(If offerings your conscience wake)
Recalling how I disobeyed
The voice of censure for your sake.

Do you remember the long nights
That you and I together spent,
And how you grudged me no delights,
And how I never was content?
