the rose enthroned.
What fiery fields of Chaos must be won,
What battling Titans rear themselves a tomb,
What births and resurrections greet the sun
Before the rose can bloom!
What battling Titans rear themselves a tomb,
What births and resurrections greet the sun
Before the rose can bloom!
And of some wonder-blossom yet we dream
Whereof the time that is infolds the seed;
Some flower of light, to which the Rose shall seem
A fair and fragile weed.
