A Rose cried out–"What of our long-pledged vows,
Kissing each other in forgetful mirth,
And lost in summer-love dreaming- of a birth
Under the singing of the springtime boughs
Where the thorny bush grows and sunshine glows?"–
The Dew-drop fretted, said–"I come in dark.
And our love deepens in Unity's spark
O darling, wait in the grove of cooing doves!"
The Rose, in anguish, a dragon-moth eyed–
That stealthily tore her immaculate breast–
And with an imploring look again replied:
"Ah! O dear, mark the Moth trying to wrest
From me the honeyed-kiss in the Cup-heart cast–
"What sweetness's there when the longing hour is past?"
