EMBLEMS OF LOVE: 42. AUGMENTED BY FAVOURABLE BLASTS by PHILIP AYRES

First Line: AS GENTLE FLAMES FANN'D BY FRESH GALES OF WIND
Last Line: WITHIN ME, KINDLE TO A VESTAL FIRE.
Subject(s): LOVE;
As gentle flames fann'd by fresh gales of wind,
At once do widen, spread and mount up higher,
So would her breath, the glowing heat I find
Within me, kindle to a vestal fire.
