"Daughter of light
 I pine, I pine,
By day and night,
 For thy smile divine!

"Oh! radiant maid,
 My dwelling share!
Our nymphs shall braid
 Thy shining hair.

"And I will keep
 Thy star-urn pure,
While thou shalt sleep
 In joy secure.

"Where stately stands
 My coral hall
On golden sands
 Thy feet shall fall.

"From rosy shell
 Thy rosier lip,
Where dimples dwell,
 Shall nectar sip;
