The lady with her golden hue

O'er the swart fiend a lustre threw,

As when embroidered girths enfold

An elephant with gleams of gold.

Fair as the lily's bending stem,—

Her arms adorned with many a gem,

A lustre to the fiend she lent

Gleaming from every ornament,

As when the cloud-shot flashes light

The shadows of a mountain height.
