Carelessly shedding radiant light around:

Compassing finite hate with infinite love,

With beauty, ugliness, and death with life!

So through that street of pouring souls I passed,

Torn between grief and ecstasy. But none

Guessed the immortal secret that I bore

Close at the fluttering heart—the fear—the joy—

The very beat and memory in my blood,

The exquisite sense and lingering pain of you.
