Not spying faults, nor in plain errors blind;
As far from want, as far from vain expense
Allow good company, but keep from thence
This done, thou hast no more, but leave.html">leave the rest
THE MARRIED LOVER
Because her spirit.html">spirit's vestal grace.html">grace
But, spirit-like, eludes embrace;
That, as on court-days subjects kiss
Affirms no mean familiarness;
Which can with safety so neglect
That grace could meet with disrespect;
Allegiance from a love so high
Of difference bridged, or state put by;
As lowly as a wife can be,
Remind me 'tis by courtesy;
Which would my proud affection hurt,
Imputes an unattained desert;
When all is won which hope can ask,
That bright in virgin ether bask;
I am, this Temple keeps its shrine
She's not and never can be mine.
Coventry Patmore [1823-1896]
Is she that to my soul is dear;
Beneath the silver evening-star,
Which lesser souls may never know.html">know;
And sweet they are as any tone
Although no home were half so fair;
life.html">life.html">Life hath no dim and lowly spot
Which most leave undone, or despise:
And giveth happiness or peace,
And, though she seem of other birth,
And patiently she folds her wings
And deeds of week-day holiness
Nor hath she ever chanced to know
Her life doth rightly harmonize;
Ne'er made less beautiful the blue
The spring-time of her childish years
Though knowing well that life hath room
As a broad river's peaceful might,
Seems following its own wayward will,
Like quiet isles my duties lie;
And makes them fresh and fair and green,
MARGARET TO DOLCINO
