ORIENTAL ROMANCE

I

Beyond lost seas of summer she

Dwelt on an island of the sea,

Last scion of that dynasty,

Queen of a race forgotten long.--

With eyes of light and lips of song,

From seaward groves of blowing lemon,

She called me in her native tongue,

Low-leaned on some rich robe of Yemen.
