If in the great bazaars
A. Woodforde-Finden
If in the great bazaars
They sold the golden stars,
Belovèd, there should be
A necklace strung for thee,
More wonderful than any known or dreamed of, Love, by me.
If wealth could buy the mist
By Dawn's pale, pearl lips kissed,
Belovèd, there should be
A white veil wrought for thee,
More marvellous than that faint film which hangs above the sea.
