Something you can no longer have, long
Orphan:
That sign of love's
First interpretation 
That braided mind and body.
Abridgment of the world you are,
Alike a nested cosmos,
With its lacks and superfluity
And imperfect balance in unity round,
That will ache still for what once was.

2062
Oh brave new world
That has such creatures in it!
That make its wonders whole:
Nor eye nor ear without another's
Can take the measure of what is;
One brief cell can hold a heaven,
Two see what succeeds it.
