Poems by George Eliot
Count That Day Lost
... That helped some soul and nothing cost -- ...
God Needs Antonio
... "Antonio then: "I like the gold - well, yes - but not for meals ...
I Grant You Ample Leave
... That notes your bubble-world: sense, pleasure, pain, ...
In a London Drawingroom
... The world seems one huge prison-house & court ...
Mid My Gold-Brown Curls
... When all the wintry army muster in array ...
Roses
... I wish The sky would rain down roses, as they rain ...
Sweet Endings Come and Go, Love
... Sweet evenings come and go, love, ...
The Choir Invisible
... May I reach That purest heaven, -- be to other souls ...
Two Lovers
... O love's blest prime!Two wedded from the portal stept: ...
Brother and Sister
... divorce,And pitiless shaped them in two forms that rangeTwo elements which sever their life's course ...
"O May I Join the Choir Invisible"
... s that have no cruelty --Be the sweet presence of a good diffused,And in diffusion ever more intense ...
Sweet Evenings Come and Go, Love
... e will come, love, And better souls be born:I would not be the best, love, To leave thee now forlorn ...
