  1. Within the letters rustling fold
    I find, once more - a glad surprise:
    A little tiny cup of gold =
    Two lovely violet eyes:-
    A cup of gold with emeralds set,
    Once filled with wine from happier spheres;
    Two little eyes, so lately wet
    With Springs' delicious dewy tears.
