A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Of red wine and of white, A nd, maidens mine, my bower prepare It is my wedding night. And braid my hair with jewels bright, And make me fair and fine This is the day that brings the night When my desire is mine. They decked her bower with roses blown, With rushes strewed the floor, And sewed more jewels on her gown Than ever she wore before. She wore two roses in her face, Two jewels in here en, Her hair was crowned with sunset rays, Her brows shone white between.
