Love has its flatteries, has its treacheries.

D. The ducks swim silently o'er the dark lake – while they
have no drake, – but when he comes to the languishing
crowd he changes all – a gay chatter begins, the husband Man
is the support roof & the pillar of the house – the maiden languishes
without him – & her existence is no existence.

M. Venus takes her birth in water & there she is queen
The fish deluded by her wander in the lake. Everyone
is driven by his own desire – the flame burns thro' all
in water. I also Neither do I sing in vain.
Against my will I feel a flame – a flame for
Amaryllis.

  • * *

D. The nightingale sings on the hazel tree, a free wind swept by
In a high Elm tree the leaves murmur, so fair Amaryllis
when she opens her lips the nightingale ceases to sing
the leaves are still & the wind dies.

M. Fair is the rose in the garden when yet in the bud
Far is the Cypress wood on a charming plain – but when the
Enchanting Amaryllis appears, the rose is nought nor
the cypresses – even tho' they were of Lebanon.

D. The moon follows the Sun – the Stars follow
the Moon – the dark twilight is every day's beginning & end
So I look Amaryllis and wherever thou turnest
my thoughts follow thee

  • *

M. The sun beams of the world – & its rays penetrate
the clear deep depth of the streams so I unsatiated with the blue depth

of thy eye I would drown myself in the misterious depth
of thy heart

  • *

So the shepherds sang by the side of their shepherdess.
Eager to please – serene heaven itself favored them. Both worthy
of praise () Amaryllis too was grateful rewarding
each with a spray of the blooming thorns & in order
to enjoy after the same songs she promised to often wen came &
united her flocks to theirs.
