“Her soul trembled on her lips like a drop of dew on a flower.”
“What have we in common with the rosebud, which trembles because a drop of dew is lying upon it?”
“The birds that were singing in the dew-drenched garden seemed to be telling the flowers about her.”
“He had her in his arms, her face like a wet flower at his lips, and all their vain terrors shriveling up like ghosts at sunrise.”
“Then he kissed her. At his lips' touch she blossomed for him like a flower and the incarnation was complete.”
“Her blood is settled, and her joints are stiff;Life and these lips have long been separated:Death lies on her like an untimely frostUpon the sweetest flower of all the field.”
