Wilde, Oscar: Remorse (A Study in Saffron)
Remorse (A Study in Saffron) (English)I love your topaz-coloured eyes That light with blame these midnight streets, I love your body when it lies Like amber on the silken sheets.
I love the honey-coloured hair That ripples to your ivory-hips; I love the languid listless air With which you kiss my boyish lips.
I love the bows that bend above Those eyelids of chalcedony: But most of all, my love! I love Your beautiful fierce chastity!
