When spring, to woods and wastes around,
Brought bloom and joy again,
The murdered traveller's bones were found,
Far down a narrow glen.

Song (Untitled#1)

© George Meredith

Love within the lover's breast
Burns like Hesper in the west,
O'er the ashes of the sun,
Till the day and night are done;
Then when dawn drives up her car -
Lo! it is the morning star.

Love

Weary with longing for the boy that still

joy or sadness
but not as others do

The Scarlet Cloak

© Roderic Quinn

ONE may go a-many leagues a-questing yon and hither;
One may look on queens and kings, and think the vision bliss;
But he who has the wholesome heart, as lightsome as a feather,
Can find a joy in everything, no matter what it is.

The verses and the prophecy.

  Prythee quit this caprice; and (as old Falstaff says)
  Let us e'en talk a little like folks of this world.
