Sweeter than roses
Sweeter than roses, or cool evening breezeOn a warm flowery shore, was the dear kiss,First trembling made me freeze,Then shot like fire all o’er.What magic has victorious love!For all I touch or see since that dear kiss,I hourly prove, all is love to me.

I hourly prove, all is love to me.
