…RICAL AND DRAMATIC. 1898. THE FIVE KISSES} I, AFTER CONFESSION. Day startles the fawn from the avenues deep that look to the east in the heart of the wood : Light touches the trees of the hill with its lips, and God is above them and sees they are good : Night flings from her forehead the purple- black hood. The thicket is sweet with the breath of the’ breeze made soft by the kisses of slum- bering maids ; The nymph and the satyr, the fair and the faulty alike are the guests of these amorous shades 3 The hour of Love flickers and falters and : …

As a saint in a vision half hidden I see the sweet face in a mist, A nimbus of glory unbidden That shades you or shows as you list. But I, as a bridegroom, unchidden, may kiss—and am kissed. In the light and the manifest splendour That shows you in darkness a bride, Pale blossom of moonlight and slender, A lily that sways in the tide, A star …

The moon is up; the star-sky dawns ; My lover turns a ruby lip: There gather nymphs, and eager fauns To watch us play ; the shadows slip, And sylph and fountain-fairy dip Between the leaves, to scent the sweet Perfume of kisses, when we clip, Where Love has chosen our retreat.

Did not keen remorse Bite thy soul ere the spear had pierced thy side ? VIII I, certes, I shall gladly quit this hell Where dream and action walk not hand-in-hand !

Nay! but the end is come. Black earth Belches that peerless Paladin Up from her gulphs—untimely birth! —Her horror could not hold him in! 79
