BEAUTY

NOT flesh alone am I, when I can be So swiftly caught in Beauty's shimmering² thread Whose slender fibres, woven, held by me, With their frail³ strength my following heart have led.

Yea, not all mortal, not all death my mind, When, watching by lone¹ twilight⁴ waters' brim I tremblingly decipher, as they wind, Her deathless hieroglyphs⁵, though strange and dim.

So for this faith, when Thou my dust shalt bring To dust, remember well, Great Alchemist, Yearly to change my wintry earth to spring, That I with Beauty still may keep my tryst⁶.
