(is love’s gift best?) did you lie wondering,
best love’s gift love’s gift loveliest
quivering yet break yet break so break
its crest white crest white flake
wondering wakened yet wakened yet unawake
whiter water so
above my mind, I would
nay, song’s the loveliest
whole night pass night pass i pass
i take song take song what
or will the whole night pass
or will the whole night pass
you lie wondering pass i lie whole
or will the whole night pass
snow in my arms? Sappho
devouring, eager? I know not
white flake flake flake flake foam
slake all wild all wild longing
will sound break sound break
snow in my arms? I know not
or will the whole night pass
loveliest i know i turn take
I know not what to do comfortless
above passion quivering
