Excerpt from In the Wake of the Phoenix

The Invitation

Come, girl, we'll loose our wings to-day,
And leave life's cloudy trouble;
And, tossing in the sunbeam's ray,
We'll make each pleasure double.

For all the winds are turned to glee,
And every rill to joy;
The wood is keeping jubilee,
And laughing like a boy.

The vale is like a silver cup
Set full with golden wine;
Our thirsty hearts shall drink it up,
And dance with the divine.

Come out, come out, and shadow shun!
We'll revel, fay and sprite,
And share our loving with the sun,
Our laughter with the light.
