ALACIEL

I am the queen Alaciel.

My mouth was like that moist gold cell

Whereout the thickest honey drips.

Mine eyes were as a grey-green sea;

The amorous blood that smote on me

Smote to my feet and finger-tips.

My throat was whiter than the dove,

Mine eyelids as the seals of love,

And as the doors of love my lips.
