LOVE ASKS!

For in their depths lies the largest Paradise.

Yet, if perhaps one pressure of thy hand.

Be granted me, then joy I thought of being complete. Were still very more sweet.

All that I ask, says love. All that I ask,.
It's just thy hand clasp. Cloud I brush thy cheek.

As Zephyrus brush a Rose leaf, words are too weak to tell the bliss in which my soul would bask.

There is no language but would desecrate profane a joy so great.

Please all that I ask, is just one tender touch of that soft cheek. Thy pounding palm in mine. Thy dark eyes lifted in a trust divine and those entwine lips that tempted me over mush

Turned where I may not seize the foremost bliss of one mad kiss.

All that I ask, says love, of life, of death.
Or of high heaven itself is just to stand.

Glance melting into glance, hand twined in hand,
The while I drink the nectar of thy breath,
In one sweet kiss, but one, of all thy store,
I ask no more."

"All that I ask "—nay, self-deceiving Love,
Reverse thy phrase, so thus the words may fall,
In place of "all I ask," say, "I ask all,"

All that pertains to earth or soars above,
All that thou weft, art, will be, body, soul,
Love asks the whole.
