My delight and thy delight.
Walking, like two angels white.
In the gardens of night.

My desire, and thy desire.
Twining to a tongue of fire,
Leaping live, and laughing higher:

Thro' the everlasting strife,
In the mystery of life.

Love, from whom the world began,
Hath the secret of the sun.

Love can tell, and love alone,
Whence the million stars were strewn.
Why each atom knows its own,
How, in spite of woe and death,
Gay is life, and sweet its breath.

This he taught us, this we knew,
Happy in his science true,
Hand to hand as we stood,
Neath the shadows of the wood.
Heart to heart as we lay
in the dawning of the day,
