The Gift



He hands
down the gift
as from a great
height, his

precious
understanding clothed
in miraculous
fortitude. This

is the present
of the ages, all
rewards
in itself

But the lady--
she, disdain-
ful, all
in white for

the occasion--cries
out petutlantly, is
that all, is
that all, is
that all.
