The maid of Redenfayn, an allegory of two worlds, in three books: I The book of loves and dreams . ght did write his name. Just here the organs dulcet psalmody Came streaming forth in thrills electrical; And round about in groups fair forms appeared. Upon a simple stand of crystal stood A being bright, a white leaf in his hand. The organs tones swelled most melodiously Along the aisles, then trembling rose and sought Each hidden niche, graved arch and deep recess, Warbling high mong the domes symphoniously,— Till all the air was rythmic harmony. And beat each heart in happy unison. The being bright here waved his shining leaf; Its golden lips the organ slowly closed, And far away its voice died gradually. Its lingering echoes whispering low farewells. The leaf the being read; and all that throng Drew near. To his each face upturned, each eye Affixed, each ear awake, greedy to hear A poem sweet, in stanzas musical.— A tale in memory to keep preserved. Until one dreams upon his wedding night,— A tale of Paradise,—• of ecstasy. Its crvstal thoughts no earthly tongue can turn.
