My liquid sleep; I woke, and did approve
All Nature to my heart, and thought to make
A paradise of earth for one sweet sake.
(Rosalind And Helen: A Modern Eclogue)

And like light can flee,
But above all other things,
Spirit, I love thee -
Thou art love and life!

Now at the point I meant," said Maddalo,
And bade the gondolieri cease to row.
