Juan and Haidée gazed upon each other

With swimming looks of speechless tenderness,

Which mixed all feelings⁠—friend, child, lover, brother⁠—

All that the best can mingle and express

When two pure hearts are poured in one another,

And love too much, and yet can not love less;

But almost sanctify the sweet excess

By the immortal wish and power to bless.
