GIVE NOT TO ME
Give not to me, mid the thunder
And speed of the world's hot wheels,
Such love as perhaps the Marble
For the Alabaster feels.
And speed of the world's hot wheels,
Such love as perhaps the Marble
For the Alabaster feels.
But love me with love as fiery
As the furnace whence arose
Both Marble and Alabaster,
In the Earth's primeval throes.
As the furnace whence arose
Both Marble and Alabaster,
In the Earth's primeval throes.
