Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGH IFGHFJKLMNFF| Beloved of the rivers beset | A |
| By azure water and transparent drops | B |
| Like a tree of veins your spectre | C |
| Of dark goddess biting apples | D |
| And then awakening naked | E |
| To be tattoed by the rivers | F |
| And in the wet heights your head | G |
| Filled the world with new dew | H |
| - | |
| Water rose to your waist | I |
| You are made of wellsprings | F |
| And lakes shone on your forehead | G |
| From your sources of density you drew | H |
| Water like vital tears | F |
| And hauled the riverbeds to the sand | J |
| Across the planetary night | K |
| Crossing rough dilated stone | L |
| Breaking down on the way | M |
| All the salt of geology | N |
| Cutting through forests of compact walls | F |
| Dislodging the muscles of quartz | F |
