Elinor Wylie (Элинор Уайли)

Love Song

Lovers eminent in love 
Ever diversities combine; 
The vocal chords of the cushat-dove, 
The snake’s articulated spine.

Such elective elements 
Educate the eye and lip 
With one’s refreshing innocence, 
The other’s claim to scholarship.

The serpent’s knowledge of the world 
Learn, and the dove’s more na”ive charm; 
Whether your ringlets should be curled, 
And why he likes his claret warm.
