But I am crown'd to-day, and not so coy—
Crown'd with a kiss, and sceptred with a joy;
And all the world shall see that I am proud.
VI.
I shall be sated now. I shall receive
More than the guerdon of my wildest thought,
More than the most that ecstasy has taught
To saints in Heaven; and more than poets weave
In madcap verse, to warn us, or deceive;
And more than Adam knew ere Eve was brought.
