Ecstasy

104
Your eyes star-worlds of beauty are,
My long road blazing from afar,
                        Sweet Emily!
 
The essence of the rose's musk
Bathes your wine-lips as through the dusk
                        They summon me!
 
The downy pillows of your breast,
Sweet Eden where my soul would rest
                        Eternally!
