And blessings on the falling out That all the more endears, When we fall out with those we love And kiss again with tears! For when we came where lies the child We lost in other years, There above the little grave, Oh, there above the little grave, We kiss'd again with tears. - [Reconciliation] Ask me no more; thy fate and mine are seal'd; I strove against the stream and all in vain: Let the great river take me to the main: No more, dear love, for at a touch I yield: Ask me no more. - [Fate] Bearing a life-long hunger in his heart. - [Disappointment] Bring in great logs and let them lie To make a solid core of heat. - [Proverbs] But that old man, who is lord of the broad estate and the hall, Dropped off gorged from a scheme which left us flaccid and drained. - [Proverbs] By blood a king, in heart a clown. - [Ancestry : Aristocracy] Cast all your care on God; that anchor holds. - [Care] Cursed be the social lies that warp us from the living truth! - [Society : Solitude] Dear as remembered kisses after death, And sweet as those by hopeless fancy feigned On lips that are for others; deep as love, Deep as first love; and wild with all regret; O death in life! the days that are no more. - [Regret] Every man at time of Death, Would fain set forth some saying that may live After his death and better humankind; For death gives life's last word a power to live, And, lie the stone-cut epitaph, remain After the vanished voice, and speak to men. - [Death] Eyes not down-dropped nor over-bright, but fed with the clear-pointed flame of chastity. - [Eyes] Fall back upon a name? rest, rot in that? Not keep it noble, make it nobler? Fools! - [Proverbs] Faultily faultless, icily regular, splendidly null, dead perfection; no more. - [Perfection] Feet like sunny gems on our English green. - [Feet] Displaying page 1 of 18 for this author: Next >> [1] 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18
