Smouldered and glittered in the plain.

"Sometimes it was a wandering wind,

Sometimes the fragrance of the pine,

Sometimes the thought how others sinned,

That turned her sweet blood into wine.

"Sometimes she heard a serenade,

Complaining, sweetly, far away.

She said, ‘A young man woos a maid’;

And dreamt of love till break of day.
