A Lyric [After Victor Hugo]
Published in the Agnostic Journal London, England 8 July 1905 (page 28)
Ah what if I hear The wood-birds rejoice? That bird is most clear Who sings in thy voice.
What if the stars shine, Or they hide from the skies? The brightest is thine, In the light of thine eyes.
Doth April renew With blossoms the earth? What sweeter e'er grew Than in thy heart hath birth?
The singer of lire— This day-star aflame— This flower of desire— Oh! love is its name.
