2 quotes

It is not that I mourn you,
To mourn you were to scorn you,
For you are one step nearer to the beauty singers seek.

Undertones (1883)

O Balder, he who fashion’d us,
And bade us live and move,
Shall weave for Death’s sad heavenly hair
Immortal flowers of love.

Balder the Beautiful (1877)
