No! Death cannot have taken thee! In the sweet hour of love, The Sun-god lifted thee away, O child of sunlike beauty! He took thee to his palaces To fill thee with his love, A love that lives in light and is An endless glittering! Flowers with light-born fragrances And fruits as sweet as light, The Sun will pluck for thee; and he Will bathe thee in a stream Flooded with light. And clad In a white robe of light, my child, Thou wilt come back to me, Riding on a star-crowned deer!
