When do I see thee most, beloved one? |
| [00:58.10] |
When in the light the spirits of mine eyes |
| [01:05.22] |
Before thy face, their altar, solemnize |
| [01:14.62] |
The worship of that Love through thee made known? |
| [01:33.48] |
Or when in the dusk hours (we two alone) |
| [01:42.38] |
Close-kissed and eloquent of still replies |
| [01:53.04] |
Thy twilight-hidden glimmering visage lies, |
| [02:01.81] |
And my soul only sees thy soul its own? |
| [02:19.88] |
|
| [02:35.16] |
O love, my love! if I no more should see |
| [02:40.45] |
Thyself, nor on the earth the shadow of thee, |
| [02:48.68] |
Nor image of thine eyes in any spring,-- |
| [02:58.09] |
How then should sound upon Life's darkening slope |
| [03:10.73] |
The ground-whirl of the perished leaves of Hope, |
| [03:20.06] |
The wind of Death's imperishable wing? |
