With lilting heart she heralds his return,
And in rich vesture doth herself array;
Her veins run ichor, her sweet temples burn,
While roseate blushes round her cheeks do play;
All shadowy doubts her joyous mind doth spurn—
Will he not kiss her fondling fears away?
Once more to be close-haven'd in his arms
Were recompense for many past alarms!
