Slim tears of poppy-purpled flame; and rich,

Rose, ember-pregnant carbuncles, wherein

Fevered a captive crimson, blurred with light

The table's raven cloth. Dim bugles wan

Of cat-eyed hyacinths; moon-emeralds

With starry greenness stabbed; in limpid stains

Of liquid lilac, Persian amethysts;

Fire-opals, savage and mesmeric with

Voluptuous flame, long, sweet and sensuous as

Deep eyes of Orient women; sapphires beamed
