I trust in nature for the stable laws of beauty and utility. Spring shall plant and autumn garner to the end of time.

It is the glory and good of Art, That Art remains the one way possible Of speaking truth, to mouths like mine at least.

Oh, the little more, and how much it is! And the little less, and what worlds away.

Only I discern Infinite passion, and the pain Of finite hearts that yearn.

What of soul was left, I wonder, when the kissing had to stop?

Why comes temptation but for m...

Why comes temptation but for man to meet And master and make crouch beneath his foot, And so be pedestaled in triumph?

One who never turned his back but marched breast forward, never doubted clouds would break, Never dreamed, though right were worsted, wrong would triumph, Held we fall to rise, are baffled to fight better, sleep to wake.

A whole I planned, Youth shows but half; trust God: See all, nor be afraid!

Have you found your life dista...

Have you found your life distasteful?
My life did, and does, smack sweet.
Was your youth of pleasure wasteful?
Mine I saved and hold complete.
Do your joys with age diminish?

Must in death your daylight finish?
My sun sets to rise again.

I count life just a stuff
To try the soul's strength on.

No! let me taste the whole of it, fare like my peers,
The heroes of old,
Bear the brunt, in a minute pay glad life's arrears
Of pain, darkness and cold.

I think, am sure, a brother's love exceeds
All the world's loves in its unworldliness.

Never the time and the place

Never the time and the place
And the loved one all together.

God be thanked, the meanest of his creatures
Boasts two soul-sides, one to face the world with,
One to show a woman when he loves her.

There is no truer truth obtainable by Man than comes of music

Of what I call God, And fools call Nature.
