LOVE.

Of woman was I born, and man I am.

I come to teach the greatest, yet the most meek

Of all true lessons which man e'er can learn—

God's man was made to love, and nought to hate,

Except the Ill which God and angels hate.

Oh! this grand lore hath fallen on my heart

Like smiling sunlight on a gloomy ocean.

Oft have I heard and felt great throbs of love

Vibrating through the universe of worlds,
