First Line: The alchemist who throws his worlds
Last Line: The lost dominions of delight.
Subject(s): Love
The alchemist who throws his worlds
In the round crucible of the sun,
Has laid our bodies in the forge
Of love to weld them into one.
The hypnotist who waves his hand
And the pale streamers walk the night,
A moment for our souls unbars
The lost dominions of delight.
