Oh no, I answered her; that will do you no good, and as, involuntarily, my eyes turned towards the fatal wardrobe, I saw, with disgust mingles with horror and anger, that the nail remained fixed in the wall with a long piece of rope still hanging to it.

Those eyes of wondering love, Sweet as the dawn and softer than the dove, Seek no quick vision—yet they move to me And, slowly, to the child. How still are we! Yes, and a smile betokens that they wake Or dream a waking dream for kisses’ sake; Yes, I will touch thee, O my low sweet brow! My wife, thy lips to mine—yes, kiss me now!

Now then my eyes gave the lie to my hand ; but rushing upon thee like a bull, I did pe- netrate to the core of thy being ; and great joy overcoming me I fell down, assured that there was but one. Thus it is with the unbeliever3 and his three gods ; but whoso knoweth Allah knoweth Him to be one.

Thy love irradiates my eyes, Tints my skin gold ; its melodies Of inusic run over my face 3 Smiles envy kisses in the race To bathe beneath my eyelids. Light Clothes me and circles with the might Of warmer rosier suns. Thy kiss Dwells on my bosom, and it is A glittering mount of fire, that burns Incense unnamed to heaven, and yearns In smoke toward thy home.
