Speechless he stood, but she now drew anear,
Simple and sweet as she was wont to be,
And once again her silver voice rang clear,
Filling his soul with great felicity;
And thus she spoke, Wilt thou not come to me,
O dear companion of my new-found life,
For I am called thy lover and thy wife'.

-- William Morris, The Earthly Paradise
