And the glad, light mixture of her hair.

I wrote of God and angels.

They stole the simple blush of my desire

To make their isolated triumph human.

Knights and kings flooded my song,

Catching with their glittering clash

The unheard boldness in my life.

Gods and nymphs slipped through my voice,

And with the lofty scurrying of their feet

Spurned the smirched angers of my days.
