Excerpt from The Lion's Cub: With Other Verse
Lilies from the first have grou n For no service but their own. Votaries to themselves they live, Taking all the heavens give, Homage of the wind and dew, Sighs and tears of lovers, too. Pearls are souls of lilies flown, Saved because they once were dear, By the baptism of Love's tear That turns itself and them to stone.
Since thou hast my Sighs and tears, And the fulness of my years.

Excerpt from The Lion's Cub: With Other Verse
Liber Amoris.
I.
Upon the Delphic leaves
Of this prophetic book
Whoever will may look;
No eye but mine perceives
What gladdens there, or grieves,
Nor why the peace of years
Is wrecked with hopes and fears.
Many will read the words,
But none will understand
The meaning, though the birds
Fly up and down the land,
And, wooing, learn and teach
That universal speech.
You know it not, and I
Only so much thereof
As signifies I love -
But not the reason why.
