He. If I should touch you now --

She. Flame would follow your hands,
Flame upon hair and brow
Curling in little strands.
My body is light with love
As a little sun-drunk tree.
My body is pierced through --

He. With me -- with me!

She. Say over again, again,
Anything wild and sweet.

He. Shall we make magic names,
Queer, to repeat?

She. Crumple this moment up,
Toss it against a star!

He. You are within my arms!

She. Yet I know not where we are!
