A yearning gardenia

That broods in a shaft of light...

Arielle clapping hands and running

About her rooms,

Arranging cloths of gold and jars of crystal,

And vases of ruby cloisonne.

Arielle matching blues and reds:

Pomegranates, apples in bowls of jade.

Arielle reposing, lost in Plato,

In the contemplation of Agni.
