Apocalypse

Before I found her I had found
Within my heart, as in a brook,
Reflections of her: now a sound
Of imaged beauty; now a look.
 
So when I found her, gazing in
Those Bibles of her eyes, above
All earth, I read no word of sin;
Their holy chapters all were love.
 
I read them through. I read and saw
The soul impatient of the sod–
Her soul, that through her eyes did draw
Mine-to the higher love of God.
