Come then to me the stars are high The earth is deep the moon drops dew Swift Hermes floats along the sky From Jove to me from me to you
I should despair of power and peace Were I alone to sigh and sift The silly from the wise in Greece He knew I see the shadow shift
A single flame fills all the earth A single sun fills all the blue A single death, a single birth Suffice us not but me with you Discover if there be a way Separate from that path above The plains of earth the high gods say There is a way the way of love
