Sayfa 122 - I love the language, that soft bastard Latin, Which melts like kisses from a female mouth, And sounds as if it should be writ on satin, With syllables which breathe of the sweet South, And gentle liquids gliding all so pat in, That not a single accent seems uncouth, Like our harsh northern whistling, grunting guttural, Which we're obliged to hiss, and spit, and sputter all.
Sayfa 36 - There will I ask of Christ the Lord Thus much for him and me: — Only to live as once on earth With Love, only to be, As then awhile, for ever now Together, I and he.
Sayfa 98 - ... gold. And still she sits, young while the earth is old, And, subtly of herself contemplative, Draws men to watch the bright web she can weave, Till heart and body and life are in its hold. The rose and poppy are her flowers ; for where Is he not found, O Lilith, whom shed scent And soft-shed kisses and soft sleep shall snare ? Lo ! as that youth's eyes burned at thine, so went Thy spell through him, and left his straight neck bent And round his heart one strangling golden hair.
Sayfa 35 - How to their father's children they shall be In act and thought of one goodwill; but each Shall for the other have, in silence speech, And in a word complete community? Even so, when first I saw you, seemed it, love, That among souls allied to mine was yet One nearer kindred than life hinted of.

Sayfa 36 - Into the fine cloth white like flame Weaving the golden thread, To fashion the birth-robes for them Who are just born, being dead. "He shall fear, haply, and be dumb...

Sayfa 38 - Tu se' colei che l'umana natura Nobilitasti sì, che il suo Fattore Non disdegnò di farsi sua fattura. Nel ventre tuo si raccese l'amore, Per lo cui caldo nell'eterna pace Così è germinato questo fiore. Qui se' a noi meridiana face Di caritade , e giuso intra i mortali Sei di speranza fontana vivace.
Sayfa 38 - La tua benignità non pur soccorre a chi domanda, ma molte fiate liberamente al dimandar precorre. In te misericordia, in te pietate, in te magnificenza, in te s'aduna quantunque in creatura è di bontate.
Sayfa 75 - Then, when their memories are stored, and their imaginations fed, and their hands firm, let them take up the scarlet and the gold, give the reins to their fancy, and show us what their heads are made of.
