On the night sky hair of the women | B |

The sprays snot roses gold and red | O |

And the voices chattered on the way | P |
To the frappe speaking of pictures | Q |
Speaking of a strip of black velvet | R |
Crossing a girlish woman's throat | S |
Speaking of the mystic music flash | T |
Of pots and sprays of roses | U |
'Nothing lovelier nothing lovelier ' | - |
