PARACELCUS.
I.—PARACELSUS ASPIRES.
Scene, Würzburg—a garden in the environs. 1507.
Festus, Paracelsus, Michal.
Par.Come close to me, dear friends; still closer—thus;
Close to the heart which, though long time roll by
Ere it again beat quicker, press'd to yours,
As now it beats—perchance a long, long time—
At least henceforth your memories shall make
Quiet and fragrant as befits their home.
Nor shall my memory want a home in yours.—
