Thou know'st not him, Nor ever will know. That man loves thee not : MARY MAGDALENE. 29 He cannot love thee, being what thou art.
The holiness thou seekest is a bar For ever raised between thy soul and his.
But I I love thee, branded as thou art By pious scorn : I love thee, Magdalene !
Give me thy love, and I will bear thee hence, And 'mid the splendours of imperial Rome Will live for thee, will love but thee alone ! " He caught her in his eager arms, and pressed Devouring kisses on her ripplin...g hair, Her brow, her cheek, her lips. With faint, low cry She tore herself away, and through the gloom Fled like a shadowy vision from his view.
XXIII.
Silent he stood. The great veins in his throat Sent crowding currents to his surging brain. The moonlight streamed upon the grassy lawns, A bird sang softly in the midnight hush, A faint breeze stirred the branches of the trees.
MARY MAGDALENE.
Slowly his calm returned. A bitter smile Wreathed his stern lips. " A whim, a passing whim !
He sneering muttered.
