"Thou art mine own, mine equal and my spouse,
My complement, without whom I were nought;
So in mine eyes thou art more fair than I,
For in thee only is my life fulfilled."
Then added, in a harmonious voice, aloud:
"Thou long hast thought upon life's mystery,
Its vast eternally recurring rounds
Of rest and rebirth and activity,
And sought therein the passage of the soul
From light to darth, from dark to light again.
Come then with me, and we will see in part
The latter in its human phase unveiled."
So saying, with her presence she endowed
Him with new senses, faculties and powers,
That far surpassed the limits of the old.
