Tho' here and there brief hints of melody,
Of melody unutterable, clove the air.

I was wan and weary with life ; my sick soul yearned for death;
I was weary of women and war and the sea and the wind's wild breath;
I cull'd sweet poppies and crush'd them, the blood ran rich and red:--
And I cast it in crystal chalice and drank of it till I was dead.
Amy Levy

If the flame of Poesy
And the flame of Love grow cold,
Slay my body utterly.
Amy Levy
