from the text on the tissue paper, by Charles Van Lerberghe:

INTERLUDE
(Fragment)

Autour du bassin rond,
Comme des roses autour d'un front,
Une ronde de filles blondes
Tourne et va, s'arrête un peu
Autour du bassin bleu,
Puis retourne, et l'une donne
A l'autre sa petite main;
Et toutes marchent en couronne,
Toutes chantent en chemin,
Et leurs claires images blondes
Tournent et nagent
Dans l'onde,
Parmi les poissons d'or.
