| O THOU undaunted daughter of desires! | |
| By all thy dower of lights and fires; | |
| By all the eagle in thee, all the dove; | |
| By all thy lives and deaths of love; | |
| By thy large draughts of intellectual day, | 5 |
| And by thy thirsts of love more large than they; | |
| By all thy brim-fill’d bowls of fierce desire, | |
| By thy last morning’s draught of liquid fire; | |
| By the full kingdom of that final kiss | |
| That seized thy parting soul, and seal’d thee His; | 10 |
| By all the Heav’n thou hast in Him | |
| (Fair sister of the seraphim!); | |
| By all of Him we have in thee; | |
| Leave nothing of myself in me. | |
| Let me so read thy life, that I | 15 |
| Unto all life of mine may die! |
