Reading Passage: Porphyria's Lover

That moment she was mine, mine, fair, / Perfectly pure and good: I found / A thing to do, and all her hair / In one long yellow string I wound / Three times her little throat around, / And strangled her. No pain felt she; / I could not help it; I kissed her. / Since I could not make her calmer / I found a thing to do— / And all her hair in one long yellow string / I wound three times her little throat around, / And strangled her. / And thus we sit together now, / And all night we have not stirred, / And yet God has not said a word.
