    (W.H. Auden)
    Victor was a little baby, into this world he came:
    His father took him on his knee and said:' Don't dishonour the family
    Name.' Victor looked up at his father- loked up with big round eyes:
    His father said:' Victor, my only son, don't you ever tell lies.'
    It was a frosty December, it wsn't the season for fruits;
    His father fell dead of heart disease while lacing up his boots.
    It was a frosty December when into his grave he sank;
    His uncle found Victor a post as a cashier in the Midlands Counties
    Bank.
    It was a frosty December Victor was only eighteen.
    But his figures were neat and his margins straight and his cuffs were
    Always clean.
    He took a room at the Peveril, a respectableboarding-house: And Time
    Watched Victor day after day as a cat willwatch a mouse.
    Victor went up to his bedroom, set the alarm bell;
    Climbed into his bed, took his bible and read of happend to Jezebel.
    It was the First of April, Anna to the Peveril came;
    Her eyes, her lips, her breasts, her hips and her smile set men
    Aflame. It was the Second of April, she was wearing a coat of fur;
    Victor met her upon the stairs and fell in love with her.
    The first time he made his proposal, she laughed, said:' I'll never
    Wed':
    The second time there was a pause, then she shook her head. Anna
    Looked at the mirror, pouted and gave a frown; Said;'Victor's as dull
    As a wet afternoon but I've got to settle down.'
    The third time hemade his proposal, as they walked by the Reservoir,
    She gave him a kiss like a blowon the head, said,'You are my heart's
    Desire.'
    They married early in August, she said;'Kiss me, you funny
    Boy':
    Victor took her in his arms and said:'O my Helen of Troy.'
    The clerks were talking of Anna, the door was just ajar:
    One said:'Poor old Victor, but where ignorance is bliss, etcetera.'
    Victor looked up at the sunset as he stood there all alone; Cried:'Are
    You in Heaven, Father ?', but the sky said'Address not known.'
    Victor looked up at the mountains, the mountains all covered with
    Snow;
    Cried:'Are you pleased with me, Father ?' and the answer came
    Back,No.
    Victor came to the forest, cried:'Father, will she ever be
    True ?'
    And the oaks and the beeches shook their heads and they
    Answered:' Not to you.'
    Victor came to the meadow where the wind went
    Sweeping by: Cried:' O Father, I love her so,' but the wind said:' She
    Must die.'
    Victor came to the river running so deep and so still;
    Crying:' O Father, what shall I do ?' and the river answered:' Kill.'
    Anna was sitting at table, drawing cards from a pack;
    Anna was sitting at table waiting for her husband to come back.
    Victor stood in the doorway, he didn't utter a word;
    She said:'What's the matter, darling ?' he behaved as if he hadn't
    Heard.
    There was a voice in his left ear, there was a voice in the
    Right,
    There was a voice at the base of his skull saying:'She must die
    Tonight.'
    Victor picked up a carving knife, his features were set and
    Drawn, Said;'Anna, it would have been better for you if you had not
    Been born.'
    Anna jumped up from the table, Anna started to scream,
    But Victor cam slowly after her like a horror in a dream.
    She dodged behind the sofa, she tore down a curtain rod,
    But Victor came slowly after her, said' Prepare to meet Thy God.'
    He stood there above the body, he stood there holding the knife;
    And the blood ran down the stairs and sang; ' I am the Resurrection
    And the Life.'
    They tapped Victor on the shoulder, they took him away
    In a van;
    He sat as quiet as a lump of moss saying; ' I am the Son of
    Man.'
    Victor sat in a corner
    Making a woman of clay.
    Saying:' I am Alpha and Omega, I shall come
    To judge the earth one day.'
