“Beloved, may your sleep be sound
That have found it where you fed.

To mighty Paris when he found
Sleep upon a golden bed
That first dawn in Helens arms?”

“Cling with life to the maid;
But when the surprise,
First vague shadow of surmise
Flits across her bosom young,
Of a joy apart from thee,
Free be she, fancy-free;
Nor thou detain her vestures hem,
Nor the palest rose she flung
From her summer diadem.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
