“He bends the luscious cane, and twists the string

With bees; how sweet! but ah! how keen their sting.

He, with five flow’rets tips thy ruthless darts,

Which through five senses pierce enraptured hearts;

Strong Champa, rich in odorous gold;

Warm Amer, nursed in heavenly mould;

Dry Makeser, in silver smiling;

Hot Kitticum our sense beguiling;

And last, to kindle fierce the scorching flame,

Love Shaft, which gods bright Bela name.”—Sir W. Jones.
