AMBERGRIS
No kiss be such a night as this !
Unless my Alice be the kiss.
No blade of grass awaiting takes
The dew fresh-fallen above,
Because my lover swoons, and slakes
Her bodys thirst of love.
This night no dewfall from the blue !
Unless my Alice be the dew.
This night O never dawn shall crest
The world of wakening,
Because my lover has my breast
On hers for dawn and spring.
This night shall never be withdrawn
Unless my Alice be the dawn.
