HYMN XLV

A charm against jealousy

1Brought hitherward from Sindhu, from a folk of every mingled
   race,
  Fetched from afar, thou art I deem, a balm that cureth.
   jealousy.
2As one with water quencheth fire, so calm this lover's
   jealousy,
  Like heat of fire that burneth here, or flame that rageth through
   the wood.
