For love's humility is Love's true pride.
Higher than the perfect song
For which love longeth,
Is the tender fear of wrong,
That never wrongeth.
Love's history, as Life's, is ended not
By marriage.
I love thee, I love but thee,
With a love that shall not die
Till the sun grows cold,
And the stars are old,
And the leaves of the Judgment Book unfold!
Bedouin Song (1853)
They sang of love, and not of fame;
Forgot was Britain's glory;
Each heart recalled a different name,
But all sang Annie Lawrie.
The Song of the Camp (1856)
