As if to you there came knowledge of a future dark and bitter,

Troubling hidden, secret, soul-depths and the fibers of your being,

By my side along the pathway of the flowers across the pale plain,

You were walking,

And the full moon

Then up-swinging through the sweet sky’s serene azure shed upon us its white light;

And your shadow,

Graceful, languid,

And my shadow

From the moon’s pale light out-floating,
