THE BIRTH OF LOVE, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Tis joy to feel the spirit leap
Last Line: And pass into love's burning sphere.
Subject(s): Love; Youth


'TIS joy to feel the spirit leap
Angelic from its childhood sleep,
Pure as a star, fair as a flower,
Eager with youth's unblasted power;
Where every sense gives soft consent,
To burst into love's element;
To be all touch, all eye, all ear,
And pass into love's burning sphere.
