Excerpt from La Légende de Sainte Liberata: Poéme

La Légende de Sainte Liberata

I

Les rayons du soleil font surgir au vitrail
Comme une splendeur d'île idéale et fleurie
Où caguerait gaiement la jeune rêverie
Par des chemins semés d'opale et de corail.

Sans perdre ses regards aux pièges du vantail,
Ardant d'un pur amour pour le fils de Marie,
Liberata, la vierge harmonieuse, prie
A deux genoux devant un christ d'or et d'émail.
