She paused, her half-closed lips were e'en as sweet
As the sweet sounds that thence the air did meet,
And such a sense swept o'er Bellerophon
As whiles in spring had come, and lightly gone
Ere he could name it; like a wish it was,
A wish for something that full swift did pass,
To be forgotten.

Betwixt them when she first had spoken there,
But now, as though it were unwittingly,
He slowly moved a little more anigh;

And faltered and looked down upon the floor.
