Man's knowledge, save before his fellow man,
Is ignorance—his widest wisdom folly.
The Coming of Love and Other Poems (1897)

And wrongs remembered make the heart still bleed,
Better are Sleep's kind lies for Life's blind need
Than truth, if lies a little peace can give.

Roofed in, poor souls, renouncing stars and skies,
And lore of woods and wild wind prophecies,
Yea, every voice that to their fathers spoke.
