Love lies hidden in every rose!

Heaven for a looking-glass!

The Flower of Old Japan and Other Poems (1907)

Heart of my heart, we are one with the wind,
One with the clouds that are whirled o'er the lea,
One in many, O broken and blind,
One as the waves are at one with the sea!

The Golden Hynde and Other Poems (1914)

One, we are one with the song to-day,
One with the clover that scents the world,
One with the Unknown, far away,
One with the stars, when earth grows old.

The Golden Hynde and Other Poems (1914)

Your dreamers may dream it
The shadow of a dream,
Your sages may deem it
A bubble on the stream;
Yet our kingdom draweth nigher
With each dawn and every day,
Through the earthquake and the fire
"Love will find out the way."

Drake, an English Epic (1908)
