They boast of Ormuz's milk white pearlsA
The ruby's magic artB
And proudly wear the crystal dropC
That fires the diamond's heartB
-
And these may admiration claimD
And countless wealth may swayE
But rarer gem was given to meF
One golden summer dayE
-
Its wondrous tints a brilliant glowG
Emit in darkest gloomH
A sweeter fragrance 'round it clingsI
Than breath of eastern bloomH
-
Were all earth's costly jewels thrownJ
In one great glittering heapK
They could not buy for ev'n a dayE
The gem I'd selfish keepK
-
Yet 'twas not won from pearly depthsL
Nor gleaned from diamond mineM
Nor all the chemist's subtletyF
Its substance could defineM
-
It ne'er was set in band of foldN
Some dainty hand to graceO
Ne'er shone in diadem to deckP
A brow of kingly raceO
-
For me alone a wizard spellQ
Lies prisoned in its beamsR
Hours of enchanted ecstacyR
And days of Eden dreamsR
-
Wouldst know the precious gift with whichS
For worlds I would not partB
The priceless jewel is they loveT
Its setting is my heartB
REVENITAB
