In her sepulcher there by the sea —
In her tomb by the sounding sea.

The beloved disciple turned to stone,
But where the silent Mother stood, there
No one glanced and no one would have dared.

His dear disciple, stone-faced, stared.
His mother stood apart. No other looked
into her secret eyes. Nobody dared.
