And seek the chimney-piece and stand before

My young Antinous from Tivoli,

With lotos in his hair and hands, who once

Belonged to Hadrian. And I shall touch

Again the garment of Eurydice,—

And wonder—when that final mortal touch

Summons Eurydice, summons my soul,

And when she turns and enters and is dark—

If Christ shall follow her and sing to her.
