A man and his loves make a man and his life.

A Saxon Song (1923)

But this beyond their wit know I:
Man loves a little, and for long shall die.

Kings Daughter (1929)

It is quite true that you have had infinitely more influence on me intellectually than anyone, and for this alone I love you.

Remembrance clamoured in him: 'She was wild and free,
Magnificent in giving; she was blind
To gain or loss, and, loving, loved but me, — but me!

Orchard and Vineyard (1921)
