ue, Golden friends I laugh to see, Changing, I come back to you, Never doubt my loyalty! Gifts Come near! you are my friend and I will wear Gems for your sake, and flowers in my hair; Garments of silver gauze, and cloth of gold . . . And I will give you power to have and hold, And passion, and delight and ecstasy. What will you give to me?
