-:An eagle descends from this sky white with archangels
-:And you sustain me
-:Let them tremble a long while all these lamps
-:Pray pray for me
-:The city’s metallic and it’s the only star
-:Drowned in your blue eyes
-:When the tramways run spurting pale fire
-:Over the twittering birds
-:And all that trembles in your eyes of my dreams
-:That a lonely man drinks
-:Under flames of gas red like a false dawn
-:O clothed your arm is lifted
-:See the speaker stick his tongue out at the listeners
-:A phantom has committed suicide
-:The apostle of the fig-tree hangs and slowly rots
-:Let us play this love out then to the end
-:Bells with clear chimes announce your birth
-:See
-:The streets are garlanded and the palms advance
-:Towards thee
