Question

Two doves upon the selfsame branch,

Two lilies on a single stem,
Two butterflies upon one flower:—
O happy they who look on them.


Who look upon them hand in hand
Flushed in the rosy summer light;
Who look upon them hand in hand
And never give a thought to night.

—"Song,"
Christina Rossetti
