I wear the nuptial band, the soul's embrace Made physical in dense matter's world, But in this denseness is there still not space For ether, fire, God, in atom's mould?
The body's sensuous attraction palls Before the light in the beloved's eyes And something in the inner nature calls Remembrance of those lost eternities.
A recognition from the vasts of space, A conscious union of souls no longer blind, In unknown bodies knowledge of a place Beyond the settled precincts of the mind.
In a blue-white flame was forged the ring of love No force can separate nor death remove.
