The first fruits of a pregnant soul's increase
Like little flames of newly-kindled fire
Lie on life's threshold nearest unto death;
And her life ebbs till she encompasseth
The tender offspring of fulfilled desire
And sinks into impenetrable peace.
Like little flames of newly-kindled fire
Lie on life's threshold nearest unto death;
And her life ebbs till she encompasseth
The tender offspring of fulfilled desire
And sinks into impenetrable peace.
