Not with libations, but with shouts and laughter br We drenched the altars of Love's sacred grove, br Shaking to earth green fruits, impatient after br The launching of the colored moths of Love. br Love's proper myrtle and his mother's zone br We bound about our irreligious brows, br And fettered him with garlands of our own, br And spread a banquet in his frugal house. br Not yet the god has spoken; but I fear br Though we should break our bodies in his flame, br And pour our blood upon his altar, here br Henceforward is a grove without a name, br A pasture to the shaggy goats of Pan, br Whence flee forever a woman and a man.br br Edna St.
