Went up from my feet to my head,
With little chills after it stealing-
And my hands got as numb as the dead.
A moment, and then it was over:
The diamond blazed up in my eyes,
And I saw in the face of my lover
A questioning, strange surprise.

That heavy with fragrance bloomed near,
But I didn't feel natural for hours;

Who has carried the prize away,
And say you'll come on when I marry;
I think it will happen in May.
