the rose, loved-of-love.”

For in thy face is nought to find,
Only thy soft unchristened smile,
That shadows neither love nor guile,”

Lined with a skin as soft as silk,
Within a fountain crystal-clear,
A golden apple doth appear.
No doors there are to this stronghold,
Yet thieves break in and steal the gold.”
