The meaning of the two previously mentioned poems, which Hardy wrote in the year 1875, now becomes all too painfully obvious, for it is clear that the words ‘Wasted were two souls in their prime’ (from We Sat at the Window), and ‘Between them lay a sword’ (from To a Sea Cliff), clearly apply to himself and Emma. The poems also confirm that Emma’s failure to respond to his sexual advances was a problem for Hardy, right from the very onset of their married life.
