FITTING perfumes to prepare, br br And to raise thy rapture high, br Must a thousand rosebuds fair br br First in fiery torments die. br br One small flask's contents to glean, br br Whose sweet fragrance aye may live, br Slender as thy finger e'en, br br Must a world its treasures give; br br Yes, a world where life is moving, br br Which, with impulse full and strong, br Could forbode the Bulbul's loving, br br Sweet, and spirit-stirring song.
