What slumbering deliciousness

Awoke beside the Dorian Stream

When the young prince from over sea

Broke on the lovely Spartan's dream;

And all the fervor and desire,

The raptures and the ecstasies,

Of Aucassin and Nicollette,

Of Abelard and Heloise,

And all the passionate despair,

So bravely borne for many a year,

Of Tristram and the dark Iseult,

Of Launcelot and Guinevere!
