Where no one passeth except the sun,

Who walked like a terrible god through the hell of the brazen skies;

And the dreadful cohorts of the constellations,

Who pass remote in alien years,

And clad with icy azures of unattainable distance.

My beloved is a singing fountain,

Set in a wide oasis,

Between the frondage of the fruitful palm,

And the branches of the flowering myrtle:

The wind that bloweth thereon,
