Not illustrated. 1871 Excerpt: ...azure skies, Upon the flowers' half-open'd bosoms lying, Still'd with the flood of light and perfumed sighs, Shaking, in youth, the dust from dainty wings, And rising like a prayer to vaults eterne--Such life a butterfly's, and still it brings Thoughts of the soft desires that in us yearn, And still unsatisfied deflower all mortal things, Then to the gates of heaven in search of bliss return! XXXV. MY SPANISH GIRL. (alf. De Musset.) A SPANisn girl, with witching eyes That wakening sparkle with delight, Cradled upon my heart she lies, And slumbers thro' the livelong night, Around me clasped one showy arm, And like the swan's white neck it gleams, Bowing beneath the potent charm, And influence of soothing dreams. Gay cherubim around her sing! Hover, sweet birds, above our nest! Gild with the shadow of your wing Her happy sleep which God has blest. For everything around is urging To drive all else but love away, --Our pleasures heedless of life's surging, Our curtains heedless of the day. Cool, sweet, my mad soul with a kiss, My parch'd lips with thy balmy breath, Oh let us rest alone like this Until the parting hour of death; Still rest, and perhaps the wandering star, Altho' upon destruction bound, As the cow'd sages dread afar, Will leave our corner safe and sound. I prithee, with those arts of thine, Cure my wild soul--my deep emotion; Commingle, sweet, your thoughts with mine A streamlet with a roaring ocean. For can yon ever fully know How often I have wept at life? What deep, unutterable woe In my poor heart is always rife? O mistress mine, as here I languish, Cover my lips with sweet caresses, And I will tell you all mine anguish, While toying with your silken tresses; Tell all, and I will quite forget That last night, when I tried to speak, You slept, ...We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
