Excerpt from Divine Adventures: A Book of Verse For in the morning of our love, there came The spirit singing such entrancing notes, As sweeps the whole empyrian with a ame, Wherein, a dream, pure lofty pleasure oats, And love and beauty find their mellow throats, In glorious fervor, drinking from the golden bowl, The wine of joy that binds-them soul to soul, Thou art my muse and thine the phantasy With spirit hand to guide unconsciously.

Excerpt from Divine Adventures: A Book of Verse For in the morning of our love, there came The spirit singing such entrancing notes, As sweeps the whole empyrian with a ame, Wherein, a dream, pure lofty pleasure oats, And love and beauty find their mellow throats, In glorious fervor, drinking from the golden bowl, The wine of joy that binds-them soul to soul, Thou art my muse and thine the phantasy With spirit hand to guide unconsciously. For all I bring thee, minion of thy beauty, This little garland of a memory fruity A simple tale, as old as love is old, Of virgin art within a golden mold, Still burning, molten, shaping unto glory A matchless song and yet a simple story. How mischief led a cold unwitting boy Along new paths to taste a sudden joy; How curious Love asport from ower to ower, Hath found a sense too sweet to overpower, And yet such magic sweet, that once is tasted, A moment otherwheres were eons wasted; How Cupid, wandering in a lovely valley With arrowed bow, by many a maid must dally, Till Psyche, like a prisms ingathered hues, Into a sudden Virgin light he woos. Sweet Psyche princes in a golden land, And Princess still from bounding strand to strand, The fairest maid of any. Cupid heavenly born, Fair son of Beauty's queen, whom to adorn.
