It yearns me sore, so near, so far!

My heart moans like the harbor-bar,

For coming of the morning star.

Buy Hyacinths—a goodly share!

Ascend, O soul, Love's iris-stair,

The bridegroom waiteth for thee there!


LOVE

THE blooming flowers, the galaxies of space,

Lie pictured in a sheeny drop of even;
