First lines
. That night I loved you / in the candlelight.
Your golden hair / strewed the sweet whiteness of the pillows / and the counterpane.
O the darkness of the corners, / the warm air, and the stars / framed in the casement of the ships' lights!
The waves lapped into the harbour; / the boats creaked; / a man's voice sang out on the quay; / and you loved me.
