Spirit within two frames, oh! wherefore two?

One passion in twin hearts, which grows and grew

Till like two meteors of expanding flame,

Those spheres instinct with it become the same,

Touch, mingle, are transfigured; ever still

Burning, yet ever inconsumable:

In one another’s substance finding food,

Like flames too pure and bright and unimbued

To nourish their bright lives with baser prey,

Which point to Heaven and cannot pass away:
