Is it thy will thy image should keep open
My heavy eyelids to the weary night?
Dost thou desire my slumbers should be broken,
While shadows like to thee do mock my sight?
Is it thy spirit that thou send'st from thee
So far from home into my deeds to pry,
To find out shames and idle hours in me,
The scope and tenor of thy jealousy?
O, no! thy love, though much, is not so great:
It is my love that keeps mine eye awake;
Mine own true love that doth my rest defeat,
To play the watchman ever for thy sake:
For thee watch I whilst thou dost wake elsewhere,
From me far off, with others all too near.
Sweet love, renew thy force; be it not said
Thy edge should blunter be than appetite,
Which but to-day by feeding is allay'd,
To-morrow sharpen'd in his former might:
So, love, be thou; although to-day thou fill
Thy hungry eyes even till they wink with fullness,
To-morrow see again, and do not kill
The spirit of love with a perpetual dullness. Let this sad interim like the ocean be
Which parts the shore, where two contracted new
Come daily to the banks, that, when they see
Return of love, more blest may be the view;
Else call it winter, which being full of care
Makes summer's welcome thrice more wish'd, more rare.
Coil è stato un gruppo musicale sperimentale inglese attivo dal 1982 al 2004. Fondato da John Balance (conosciuto anche come Jhonn Balance) e Peter Christopherson (Sleazy), il duo ha esplorato generi musicali diversi, tra cui industrial, ambient, noise e musica elettronica. Il nome Coil deriva dalla forma a spirale presente in natura, un elemento che per Balance rappresentava l'universalità e la pervasiveness del suono. Coil è considerato uno dei gruppi industriali più influenti di sempre, noto per le sue atmosfere dark, sperimentali e spesso inquietanti. Le loro opere sono caratterizzate da una complessa combinazione di suoni elettronici, campionamenti, voci gutturali e testi che esplorano temi come la spiritualità, il misticismo, la sessualità e la morte. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "Horse Rotorvator", "Ostia" e "The Ape of Naples". Oltre a Balance e Christopherson, Coil ha collaborato con numerosi artisti, tra cui Thighpaulsandra, Drew McDowall e Ossian Brown.
