Transcendental Sonnet #262:
This Sweet Equality
I would like to ask a favor of you
It's just a small thing not so hard to grant
That you always love me as I love you
As co-conspirator and confidant
And sharing thus this sweet equality
Nothing can come between us you and me
Although I don't know how you could keep pace
With my love growing exponentially
The merest glance of your beautiful face
Can send me spinning into ecstasy
I hope you'll let me call you baby-girl
My angel-girl and Embla Engelmaus
And share with me the intoxicating whirl
Of Der Rosenkavalier of Richard Strauss
