See how they cling to them!

Held in the heart of their

Hearts like a part of their

Perfume they swing to them

Wings that are soft as the roses.

Dim as the forming of

Dew in the warming of

Moonlight, they light on the petals;

All is revealed to them;

All—from the sunniest

Tips to the honiest

[Pg 16]

Heart, whence they yield to them

Spice through the darkness that settles.

So to our tremulous

Souls come the emulous

Spirits of love; through whose power

All that is best in us,

All that is beautiful,

All that is dutiful,
