Which Asp
"asp, which one of many are thee"?
I ask, "did you make your own way"?
"if so, I prithee the, go, don't stay".
"brought"? "you be the death of me"!
I ask, "are you the species she chose"?
"the asp of Egypt, the Egyptian cobra"?
"one fatal bite and I will not suffer"?
"asleep, no pain, I will my sad life lose"!
