He played wild airs on his guitar.
She danced away the hours,
It mattered not to them how far
In light years was the evening star:
Their language was of flowers.
They roved along where lilies bowed,
Where trees held out their arms;
Eternal silver lined their cloud --
And then it came, with grief endowed --
Life holds for him no charms.
