['The inexpressibility topos,' Dorian can't help but notice. It is a conversation of mourning.]

I sometimes hold it half a sin
To put in words the grief I feel;
For words, like Nature, half reveal
And half conceal the Soul within.


[When it comes to mourning, few elegists compare to Tennyson's masterwork. Dorian could not have thought of any other.]

I don't think he'd begrudge you the effort.
