fractisque rauci fluctibus Hadriae,
frustra per autumnos nocentem
corporibus metuemus austrum:

te praeter inuisas cupressos
ulla breuem dominum sequetur.

Her hand twists a paper rose,
That smells of dust and old Cologne,
She is alone With all the old nocturnal smells
That cross and cross across her brain.
